COME CELEBRATE WITH US!
Who's ready to make an IMPACT!!
​
We have rebranded our Pride in the Park event to be bigger and better than ever! We listened to your feedback on previous events, took into account Wisconsin's unpredictable weather patterns, and felt strongly that there was more we could do to make our annual event everything it could be. So this year we are excited to bring you our brand new IMPACT Pride Convention. This completely indoor event will hold the same spirit of our previous festivals but with more amenities, more accessibility, and more opportunities to support our LGBTQIA+ community.
​
Join us July 13th from 10am to 8pm at The Venue, located at 37 S Water Street, Janesville WI.
​
This annual event showcases local queer owned and affiliated businesses, bands, entertainers, support services and fellow organizations dedicated to uplifting the LGBTQ+ community.
