Pridefest of Lake Worth and the Palm Beaches returned for its 21st annual celebrations, shining the spotlight on gay pride in Palm Beach County once again. This year’s pride was a two-day affair, starting on Saturday, March 29 and ending with the Parade on Sunday, March 30.
The theme of Pridefest this year is "Celebrating the FantaSea of Pride." The theme was conceptualized as Compass celebrates five years in the renovated city-owned building in Lake Worth, adjacent to the beach and the Atlantic Ocean.
In the run-up to Pridefest, Mayor Pam Triolo and the Lake Worth City Commission read a proclamation they authored that promotes inclusion, and they helped the staff at Compass: The Gay and Lesbian Community Center of the Palm Beaches raise a rainbow flag over the Lake Worth City Hall. The city welcomes all people to attend the Pride celebrations this year at Bryant Park and it is estimated that over 15,000 people enjoyed the weekend’s festivities.
