What will happen is an opportunity to meet together to learn, play, and be entertained through a series of exhibits and events. With mandated restrictions on face-toface events, such Pride staples as vendors, food trucks, beverages, and stages will not happen this year. It’s going to be unique, fun, educational, and offer an opportunity to come out of our houses, be together again and do so safely.” “This incredible event will probably never happen again in this form and on this scale. “This celebration will replace the annual Pride Festival and Pride Parade this year,” Moolman said. “Our team has gotten creative with the realities of the day, and we have worked with city and health officials to plan a Covid-safe yet fun, face-to-face series of events.” “This will be a week-long pride celebration like no other,” Robert Moolman, executive director of the Utah Pride Center, said.
As in recent years, the event will be held at Washington Square, home of the Salt Lake City-County Building, but this will not be Pride as usual due to the worldwide pandemic. The Utah Pride Center announced plans for Pride Week 2021, to be held June 1 through 7.
