There are two major outdoor, all-ages Pride festivals in Seattle, both run by Seattle PrideFest. The first is on Saturday on Capitol Hill, running along Broadway and featuring pop-up performances plus vendors and food/drink specials. The second happens at the Seattle Center on Sunday all across the campus, showcasing tons of live performances, stages, and a beer garden. These parties are where the main action is at.
