Join us for The Friendlier City Project’s fourth annual Pride on the Plaza! We are thrilled to be back in downtown Wheeling, bigger and brighter than ever before!
Pride on the Plaza is a celebration of all things LGBTQ+ not just in Wheeling but across the globe. As such we are always trying to make each Pride better than the last. This year we are excited to announce that one of the original Gilbert Baker Pride Flags will be coming to Wheeling and showcased in a popup museum at Pride!
On June 13th come out and celebrate who you are and freely express yourself in a safe space where all are welcome.
We have 75 confirmed vendors ranging from art to crafts to custom jewelry pieces.
We’ll also have live entertainers throughout the whole event! Local bands and drag queens alike will be giving dazzling performances for all to enjoy!
And don’t forget to pick up your official Pride 2026 or The Friendlier Ciy Project merch. Either pre-order or buy at our table while supplies last.
Finally we would like to thank all of our sponsors who so generously donated so that we could put on another Pride, and to any person who donated even just $1.
