This would give the city only a little over two (2) days to set up their event which is a very short turnaround time. The 2018 Pride Celebration® weekend would have been on Sunday, June 30, 2018. This time allows Pride vendors to breakdown the weekend and the City’s vendors ample time to begin setting up for the Freedom over Texas Celebration.
Typically there is a minimum of seven (7) calendar days between the Houston LGBT Pride Celebration® and the Freedom over Texas Celebration. This year poses a particular challenge in continuing that tradition for June 2018.Īs you may be aware, the City of Houston produces the annual Freedom over Texas July 4 th Celebration along Allen Parkway. Tradition is that Pride, including the Houston LGBT Pride Celebration®, is celebrated the last weekend in June. Pride is a special occasion and one to be commemorated.
