Delaware County Pride
Pride on State
Various locations,
Media, PA 19063
Saturday, June 7, 2025 from 2:00 P.M. – 9:00 P.M.
Following the annual Delaware County Pride Parade, stick around in Media as we continue to celebrate into the evening! We will be partnering with local businesses and organizations across downtown Media to host a variety of LGBTQQIA+ events and activities.
Currently, there are no active LGBTQQIA+ bars, nightclubs, or social venues in Delaware County. This deprives many young LGBTQQIA+ adults of safe spaces to meet and socialize with each other. However, with Pride on State, we will be able to provide an annual space for LGBTQQIA+ youth and adults to celebrate and socialize in Delaware County.
All official Pride on State events will be free to the public.
The Delaware County Pride Festival and all related Pride events are Smoke-Free!
We ask all attendees refrain from smoking and vaping at any of the related U.D.T.J. Pride events.
U.D.T.J. is a project of Amistad Law Project a 501(c)3 nonprofit. U.D.T.J. does not endorse or promote any political campaign, candidates, or political parties. The Delaware County Pride Festival is a community event and no campaigning of any kind will be permitted at this event.

“History isn’t something you look back at and say it was inevitable, it happens because people make decisions that are sometimes very impulsive and of the moment, but those moments are cumulative realities.”
