“Today, we live in a world where, while LGBTQ+ people of all ages and backgrounds may enjoy more rights than the generations that came before them. BUT we still need to continue to show the support for our community and celebrate our pride! Team Pride Under The Pines & The Rustic Theater are proud to bring our festival back to the picturesque town of Idyllwild for the 4th year in a row while we continue to celebrate pride alongside our fellow desert communities.” Team Pride Under the Pines shared.

The Pride Under The Pines Pride Festival was first conceived as a response to limitations brought about by COVID-19, as the event producers PS HomeBoys, two gay entrepreneurs, got together with the owners of The Rustic Theatre and said – “We’re coming out - out into the open and up on the mountain to show our Pride Under the Pines.” With the overwhelming success and continued growth and event that activates attendees from all across California, who want to show their solidarity and pride for LGBTQ + rights while they experience the charming ambiance of this high desert town surrounded by mile-high pine trees, fresh mountain air and picturesque views that make the town of Idyllwild so special.

Now in its fourth year, Pride Under The Pines, a nonprofit 501c3 organization, was founded in 2021, with the goal to spotlight the vitally important rights of the LGBTQ+ community. “Pride is not exclusive to the LGBTQ+ community but our all-inclusive event helps to show our love and support, with a message of inclusivity, diversity and community that helps to spread LGBTQ+ awareness from our home in Palm Springs throughout Southern California and beyond the West Coast.”

Since the first Pride Under The Pines, their team is noted at bringing a fresh approach to the outdoor pride festival concept and is staying true to its original mission, to deliver an inclusive LGBTQ+ pride event with a full day of out-and-proud and family-friendly activities including fabulous musical artists, hilarious comedic entertainment and is fun for all ages.

“It’s our honor and privilege to partner with Pride Under The Pines Pride Festival Event and to be the host venue for the fourth installment as we bring an inclusive community event to our beloved town.” The Rustic Theatre co-owners Gail and Graham Sutherland, shared “As the Entertainment Center of Idyllwild, our goal has always been to be a diversified and all-inclusive venue and we are beyond excited to be a part of this special event for another incredible year."
