An estimated 300,000 LGBTQ+ folks and allies flocked to St. Petersburg on Saturday for what's often touted as Florida's largest Pride event.
Partygoers didn't let heat, storm clouds or protesters ruin the rainbow-filled activities of St. Pete Pride, which included a festival filled with vendors, food trucks and performances, as well as a street parade.
Pride has been celebrated across the country for more than 50 years in honor of the anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising, an event now considered a key moment in the LGBTQ+ civil rights movement.
Editor's note: WUSF staff participated in the Pride parade.
