Set in the lush greenery of the Delaware River Valley, our Pride festival connects two towns in two different states by the New Hope & Lambertville Bridge. Drawing more than 15,000 people annually, New Hope Celebrates joins together the LGBT friendly towns of Lambertville, NJ and New Hope, PA.
Our festival features a grand parade with over 1,000 participants, beginning in Lambertville, NJ and crossing over the Delaware River into New Hope, PA. We feature both local and national marching bands, floats and nonprofit organizations. The highlight of the parade is New Hope Celebrates’ very own 100ft. Rainbow Equality Flag in eight colors!
Following the Pride Parade, the fair will be held at the end of South Main Street in New Hope, PA at Pride Park in the American Legion parking lot, entrance on New Street.
A fun-filled family event, the fair celebrates diversity. Visitors will find vendors featuring crafts, jewelry, and clothing, information from local LGBTQ+ organizations, samples, and giveaways. Dance to local and national performers as well as a live DJ.
