Gay community life initially centered around gay bars, which became hubs of many social and activist movements in the late 1960s and 1970s. Not only does PrideFest serve as a time for members and friends of the GLBT community to connect, have fun, demonstrate gay pride, and show support for gay rights it also commemorates a pivotal moment in gay rights history, the Stonewall Riots.
