About Miami Pride
Pride in Miami lasts one weekend on Ocean Drive and twelve months everywhere else. This publication covers the second part. Reporting follows LGBTQ+ life across Miami-Dade and Miami Beach: the parade and the festivals, certainly, but also the health clinics, the bars that survived, the drag houses, the church basements that hosted meetings when nowhere else would, and the county decisions that determine how safe an ordinary Tuesday feels.
Most of what runs here is a guide or an explainer, written to be used. That means practical detail: where a service sits, what it costs, who qualifies, which bus reaches it, whether a venue has a ramp. Coverage does not treat a community of hundreds of thousands as holding one opinion, and a rainbow logo is not published as though it were news. Sources are named where naming them is safe, and never when it is not.
Pride follows the festival season and the organizing behind it all year. Events lists what is on across the county, week by week. Culture covers performance, nightlife, art and the ballroom scene. Stories carries first-person accounts from people who lived through a change. History documents the local record from the 1977 Dade County fight onward. Profiles introduces organizers, owners and volunteers by name. Guides answers the practical questions about health, housing, legal paperwork and safety. Community News files what changed this week, and Business News covers the venues, sponsors and LGBTQ-owned firms behind it.
