Welcome to
Bay Area Youth Pride!
A virtual pride celebration organized by and for queer youth in the Bay Area!
Traditional Pride events are organized by and for adults, and they are often overwhelming and unwelcoming to LGBTQ+ youth. We believe that everyone should have a space to celebrate and explore their identities, and to bond with members of their own community. So, we’re creating a Pride event that provides that space for teens.
Bay Pride 2021, our inaugural event, was held virtually, with over eighty registered attendees. In our main program, we hosted seminars with local LGBTQ+ activists and artists, and showcased creative works produced by youth from all over the Bay Area. We also held a separate Zoom call for media clubs and socialization.
This year, we’re hosting Bay Area Pride 2025!
Connection, Education, and Empowerment
Bay Area Youth Pride’s mission is to create a safe space for queer youth to celebrate Pride.
By and For LGBTQ+ Youth
BAY Pride is organized by students from Gender Sexuality Alliances, High School Democrats, Rainbow Connections, and more at ten middle and high schools throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
