Part of Reading Pride's 20th Anniversary Celebration Series
Before Berks Pride Fest filled Jim Dietrich Park with thousands of people, Pride in Berks County had a home in Centre Park.

This August, we're returning to where it all began.

Join us for a relaxed afternoon of food, friendship, laughter, and community as we celebrate our roots and thank the Centre Park neighborhood that welcomed Pride and helped our festival grow into what it is today. While we've outgrown the park, it will always be part of our story—and part of our home.
