Creating an equitable, diverse, inclusive, and psychologically safe Holly Springs.

Pride of Holly Springs is here to celebrate, uplift, and stand with our LGBTQIA+ community. Through joyful events, inclusive spaces, and educational programs, we work to build a town where everyone—especially those from historically excluded identities—feels seen, safe, and valued. We believe that true community thrives on connection, equity, and pride.

Annual Pride Celebration

Join us each September for the Pride of Holly Springs Festival—our biggest, boldest celebration of LGBTQIA+ joy and community! This family-friendly event brings together neighbors, allies, local businesses, live music, storytelling, and plenty of fun for all ages. It’s more than a festival—it’s a day to connect, celebrate who we are, and build a more inclusive Holly Springs, together.

Teen Events and Safe Spaces

Queer teens and allies deserve spaces where they can show up fully, feel seen, and know they belong. That’s why we’re creating safe, welcoming environments right here in Holly Springs—places where LGBTQIA+ youth can connect, share stories, make friends, and build community. Whether it’s through hangouts, creative events, or simply being in a space where identity is celebrated, we’re here to support the next generation with pride, purpose, and joy.

The Pride of Holly Springs Scholarship is our way of celebrating the young changemakers who make our community shine.

If you’ve been working to uplift others, foster belonging, or spread a little extra pride, we want to hear your story—and support your journey.
