Albany Pride Festival is back for 2024, taking place 22nd February to 4th March.
The theme for 2024 is “We are Family” – a celebration and recognition of our strength as a community, the support we can offer each other in the face of opposition and attempts to divide us, an understanding of our Queer history of holding each up and accountable, and the incredible intersectional diversity that exists within our broad, beautiful Queer family.
