Night OUT returns to the Denton Civic Center this year!
Wear your pride gear and visit the businesses and organizations that support PRIDENTON.
Local businesses and organizations show their support and PRIDE for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community by participating in a “reverse Pride parade” where vendors are the “floats” and participants visit their booths.
A jury of community members will be present to pick the “Best Float.” We will announce the winners on our social media.
We encourage you to bring picnic blankets and lawn chairs to lounge in the park directly adjacent to the Civic Center!
We hope to see everyone OUT!
