GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) – Green Bay will show its colors on Saturday, October 4, 2025, with We Will Still Be Seen: A Pop-Up Pride, a downtown celebration of LGBTQIA+ resilience and visibility.
A press release from The Tarlton Theatre says the free, family-friendly event begins at noon at Leicht Memorial Park, with LGBTQIA+ community leaders speaking at 1 p.m. After the rally, participants will walk together to the 100 block of South Chestnut Avenue, where The Tarlton Theatre and The Truck Yard will host a Pride block party.

The block party will feature live music, drag and other performances, food trucks, vendors, and a full slate of community resources. Proceeds from The Tarlton Theatre’s bar and kitchen will help fund Green Bay Pride 2026, a two-day downtown festival set for June 13 through 14, 2026.

Organizers, including the Bay Area Council on Gender Diversity, The Tarlton Theatre, and local leaders such as State Rep. Amaad Rivera-Wagner and Alderman Joey Prestley, say the pop-up is both a celebration and a stand against mounting social and political pressures.
“Pride isn’t about pomp and pageantry, it’s about people,” organizers said in the press release. “This event is a reminder that our community will not be erased.”
Downtown locations for the 2026 festival are still being finalized.
