Pride By The Beach

Pride by the Beach is a free and family-inclusive Pride festival (no alcohol or tobacco) located in the heart of downtown Oceanside. Our mission is dedicated to serving, empowering, and advocating for the diverse LGBTQI+ community in North County San Diego. With a steadfast commitment spanning 17 years, we have diligently worked towards this objective, extending our impact to over 13 cities and Camp Pendleton. The festival has notably heightened LGBTQI+ visibility within our region, attracting 20,000 attendees last year. Our participants form a rich tapestry of the LGBTQI+ community, encompassing individuals from various backgrounds and generations, such as children, students, families, veterans, active duty military personnel, LGBTQI+ allies, educators, elected officials, and more.
