Happy Pride Month! Be who you are and celebrate in downtown Austin with our insider guide for Austin’s 2024 Pride scene with the events and businesses supporting the LGBTQ+ community. Gather the girls, guys, gays and theys to celebrate, support queer-owned businesses and hopefully learn more about Pride Month and why it is important as you attend.
Queer-Owned Businesses to Support
Support your favorite downtown queer-owned businesses a little extra this month and show them love year-round. The Austin LGBT Chamber is a great resource for allied businesses and organizations. Here are a few companies with a downtown presence that we encourage you to patronize. If we missed any queer-owned businesses downtown, let us know, and we will add to this ever-growing list! We recommend shopping local for Pride gear and know there is always some available at Austin Rocks.
