The annual Rainbows Festival, a two-day LGBTQ+-focused event put on by Phoenix Pride, brought thousands of attendees to Downtown Phoenix’s Heritage Square on April 5 and 6.
Visitors saw live performances by local and national artists, shopped for merch, enjoyed food and beverage from a variety of vendors and chatted with representatives from Phoenix-area businesses and nonprofit organizations.
Here’s a look back at the event.
