Chicago Pride Fest was held over the weekend of June 22 and 23, one week before this year’s Pride parade, June 30. Between Addison and Grace on Halsted Street, booth after booth showcased everything from community services to deep-fried Oreos.

Music acts such as singers Aubrey O’Day and Deborah Cox performed, along with a variety of drag performers and DJs.

Summer had finally arrived in Chicago and there were plenty of rainbows to be found in the neighborhood.
