The Annual Pride Parade, the signature event of New Hope Celebrates PrideFest, will kick off in Lambertville, NJ before marching into New Hope on Saturday, May 16th, 2026. Our parade and fair continue to highlight the diverse and inclusive communities of New Hope and Lambertville.

The parade will begin at 11:00 where New Jersey’s first same-sex marriages were performed in 2013 – Lambertville City Hall -- and continue down Bridge Street into Pennsylvania, making it the only Pride Parade that crosses a state line.

Following the Parade, join us for the Pride Fair at the end of South Main St., open to the public in the American Legion parking lot at the corner of New St. and South Main St. There will be vendors and live entertainment from 12 pm to 5:00 pm. Open to all, this fun-filled day brings everyone together to celebrate diversity. Cash bars are available. Admission proceeds will benefit New Hope Celebrates and all PrideFest events.
