2026 Festival Theme
Growing Together
A theme rooted in community, progress, and understanding.
Thunder Bay Pride Festival 2026’s theme, Growing Together, reflects the growth happening across our city, within our community, and throughout Thunder Pride’s journey as an organization. Over the years, Pride has continued to change, expand, and reach more people — creating space for celebration, learning, visibility, and connection.
This theme is also a reminder that growth is never finished. There is always room to listen, to understand each other better, to build stronger relationships, and to create a community where 2SLGBTQIA+ people can live safely, openly, and proudly — not just during Pride, but every day.
It continues through the conversations we have, the community we build, and the understanding we choose to grow into.
In partnership with
Community Partners
Thunder Bay Pride Festival 2026 is made possible through the support of community partners who help bring Pride, celebration, and connection to life.
