Outer Banks Pridefest 2018

The board of directors of OBX Pride, Inc., a 501(c)3 nonprofit charity, is thrilled to present the 8th Annual Outer Banks Pridefest! OBX Pridefest is fast approaching! Start making your plans now! Join us Sept. 21-23, 2018 for a whole weekend of festivities! The main Saturday event of the festival will be held at the Soundside Event Site in Nags Head, NC. Click at the bottom of this page to join our Facebook family and keep up with news and updates about the festival.

Some important information about the festival events:

There is a cover charge for each event except for the Saturday music festival at the Soundside Event site. Save some money and purchase a Pride Pass! A Pride Pass will get you into ALL of the Pridefest events for one set price and is cheaper than paying at each event separately. If you attend all paid events, purchasing a Pride Pass will save you $25 over the total of individual cover charges.
The Outer Banks Pride festival on Saturday afternoon is FREE, as always, and will be located at the Soundside Event site on highway 158 in Nags Head. NO COOLERS are allowed at the Saturday event! There will be alcohol and food vendors. Please bring cash with you, as all vendors may not be able to accept credit card payments.
The sunset booze cruise on Friday evening (now only serving beer and wine) is included with a Pride Pass. If you do not have a Pride Pass, the cost is $50.
No other events are offered separately for purchase through this website, however, you can pay the cover charge at the door for any event.
All daytime events are family-friendly. Evening events are NOT! Events inside restaurants are age 18 and above only, with ID check at the door.
