Celebrate community, visibility, and queer joy in the heart of Mystic.

Mystic Pride returns on Saturday, June 27th with a full day of events centered around connection, celebration, and community support for the LGBTQIA+ community and allies.

This family friendly community gathering will feature live music from UBC Coffee House, yoga with Vanessa, a book reading with Gaia Cornwall, bracelet making, crafts, a bake sale, bounce house fun, and more. Drag performer Miss Isa Vibe will also be joining the celebration with performances and a special coloring table for guests.

Then from 2PM to 6PM, head over behind the Mystic Museum of Art for the main Mystic Pride celebration featuring local vendors, artists, community organizations, small businesses, entertainment, and more.

During the event, you will be able to enjoy CT James Beard nominated Chef Renee Touponce’s iconic empanadas, available at the Port of Call booth!

We are also excited to announce Bleach as the first officially confirmed drag performer for Mystic Pride 2026 , with additional performers and programming still to be announced.

Together, these events create a vibrant day of visibility, affirmation, creativity, and celebration along the Mystic waterfront. Whether you’re coming with family, friends, or showing up as your full authentic self, there’s a place for you at Mystic Pride.
