ROCHESTER - Rochester Pride Day is tentatively scheduled for Aug. 27 at Parson Main Square in downtown Rochester.
According to Palana Hunt-Hawkins, an organizer and former City Councilor, the event will be similar to last year with speeches and a selection of invited informational vendors.
"We are working to secure the permit with the City of Rochester, however, planning is well underway," said Hunt-Hawkins. "We look forward to welcoming the community to this important gathering."
The celebration will run from 1-4 p.m.
The mission of the event is to promote unity, visibility, inclusivity, equality, and a positive image of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBTQ+) community.
More information will be released when the official details are confirmed.
