About

Capital City Pride is a 501(c)(3) organization focused on building a safe, strong community for all queer people to enjoy with their friends, families, and supporters. Our vision is to create a community where the presence and contributions of LGBTQ+ people are welcomed and celebrated, intolerance and injustice are challenged and defeated, and the civil rights of all people are valued and respected.

MISSION STATEMENT

Capital City Pride brings together members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender community, their friends, family, and supporters. We do this by producing events that inspire, educate, connect, and celebrate our diverse community and culture with and for the greater Des Moines Metro.

Services

Capital City Pride produces over 100 programs each year to help strengthen our community. The highlight is PrideFest in the Historic East Village, which serves as the largest LGBTQ event in the State of Iowa each year.
