Hive Pride was born from the need for more opportunities for queer joy — real, authentic, unadulterated, gay-as-hell, queer joy. 

Not your run-of-the mill corporate pride event, Hive Pride was intentionally created by queer people, for queer people with the goal of centering community, providing resources, and uplifting LGBTQIA+ folks of all ages. 

2025 was Hive Pride’s debut at Oak Park Brewing Co. featuring local vendors, drag performances, an open mic, resources, and a day full of community. And this year is going to be bigger and better.
