If you’re planning your first trip to Dunedin Pride, here’s everything you need to know, from where to park to how to participate respectfully.

1. Arrive early and know where to park

Dunedin Pride week events are spread across the city, and many fill up quickly. Whether you’re headed to a drag show at Blur Nightclub, a downtown street fair, or the much-loved Pride Walk along Edgewater Drive, arriving early is your best move. Parking downtown can be limited during major events, especially evenings and weekends.

There are several public parking lots around Main Street, as well as free street parking on surrounding roads. Keep in mind that some streets may be closed for parades or vendor fairs, so plan to walk a few blocks if needed. Bring a small bag, stay hydrated, and wear comfy shoes because you’ll likely be on your feet for a bit.

Bonus tip: Check out a transportation guide for updated info on road closures and parking suggestions during Pride week.

2. Check the official schedule and RSVP when needed

Dunedin Pride week is packed with events ranging from low-key art shows to high-energy drag performances. While many are free and open to the public, others require advance tickets or RSVPs, especially indoor events with limited capacity.

You’ll want to check the official Pride Week website or follow Dunedin Pride on social media for the full lineup. Highlights typically include a Pride kickoff party, beach yoga, LGBTQ+ film screenings, and family-friendly storytime at the library.

Some events are 21+, while others are open to all ages, so reading the descriptions beforehand will help you plan. You don’t want to show up in full rainbow glam only to realize you needed tickets two weeks ago.

Bonus tip: RSVP early for top events like the drag brunch or Pride dance party. These always sell out quickly.

3. Dress however you feel most comfortable

There’s no official dress code during Dunedin Pride week, but the unofficial rule? Show up as your best, brightest self. You’ll see people in everything from beachwear and sundresses to full glam, glitter, and six-inch heels. There’s no wrong way to dress—as long as it feels true to who you are.

That said, keep the Florida weather in mind. June can be hot and humid, especially during daytime events. Lightweight, breathable clothes and comfortable shoes are key. Don’t worry if you’re not a sequins-and-feathers type. Ally or introvert, you’ll still be welcomed with open arms.

Bonus tip: Pack a second outfit if you plan to go from day events to evening shows. You might want to freshen up or dress up before dinner or a night in downtown Dunedin.

4. Visit LGBTQ+-owned spots and local favorites

One of the best parts of Pride is supporting the people and places that make this community shine year-round. From LGBTQ+-owned cafés to vintage boutiques and beachy cocktail bars, plenty of local gems are worth exploring between events.

Be sure to check out these spots during Dunedin Pride week.

Blur Nightclub:

Located at 325 Main Street, Blur Nightclub remains a vibrant nightlife destination in Downtown Dunedin. They host a variety of events, including drag shows, karaoke, and live DJ performances. Their operating hours are Tuesday through Thursday from 3 PM to 12 AM, Friday and Saturday from 3 PM to 3 AM, and Sunday from 1 PM to 12 AM.

The Honu Restaurant and Tiki Bar:

Situated at 516 Grant Street, The Honu offers a Polynesian-themed dining experience with a tiki ambiance. They are open Wednesday and Thursday from 12 PM to 10 PM, Friday and Saturday from 12 PM to 11 PM, and Sunday from 12 PM to 10 PM.

Strandhill Public:

Strandhill Public is a modern Irish pub located at 309 W Palm Ave in Tampa, close to Dunedin. They celebrate traditional Irish culture with artisan food and libations. Operating hours are Monday through Wednesday from 4 PM to 1 AM, Thursday from 11 AM to 1 AM, Friday and Saturday from 11 AM to 3 AM, and Sunday from 11 AM to 1 AM.

Skip’s Bar & Grill:

Located at 371 Main Street, Skip’s Bar & Grill is a beloved local dive bar known for its unpretentious vibe and dog-friendly patio. They are open Tuesday through Sunday from 12 PM to 2 AM, and closed on Mondays.

Many businesses participate in Dunedin Pride week with themed specials, performances, or pop-ups. Grab a bite, leave a tip, and thank them for helping make the city a more inclusive space.

Bonus tip: Visit during happy hour to chat with locals and get the inside scoop on what’s happening that night. They always know the best spots and hidden gems!

5. Get involved and show respect

Dunedin Pride week is about joy, but it’s also about community. If you’re new to Pride or not part of the LGBTQ+ community, learning to show up as a supportive ally is a good idea. That means being mindful, open, and respectful of the space and people around you.

Ask before taking photos of performers or guests. Listen more than you speak in group discussions. If you don’t know something, ask kindly or take a moment to Google. People will appreciate it! Want to take your support further? Local organizations like Equality Florida, PFLAG, and Metro Inclusive Health host booths or panels during Pride week. Stop by, learn more, and learn how to help beyond the festivities.

Bonus tip: Volunteering for a few hours is a great way to meet people and support the heart of Dunedin Pride week. Check out local organizations looking for extra help during this busy week.

6. Bring the right gear for the day and night

You’ll probably be out and about all day, so pack with intention. A small crossbody bag or backpack is perfect for keeping your hands free. Essentials include:

Refillable water bottle (many events have water stations)
Sunscreen and lip balm
Sunglasses and a hat
Portable phone charger
ID and some cash (not all vendors accept cards)

Bring a light layer if you plan to stay out for the evening because restaurants and venues can get chilly with A/C blasting. Florida is known for cranking up the air conditioning during the summer months.

Bonus tip: Many vendors give away free Pride-themed swag and sunscreen—scoop it up early!

7. Pace yourself and soak up more than just the party

Dunedin Pride is full of energy, but it’s also about finding moments to connect, unwind, and enjoy the town’s laid-back charm. Between the drag shows and dance parties, make space for a slower side of Pride, which includes good coffee, quiet strolls, and spontaneous conversations with locals who love their city.

Start your morning with a walk along the Pinellas Trail, or grab a smoothie from a downtown café before checking out the local art galleries and bookshops just a block or two off the main strip. In the afternoon, take a break under the shade of a palm tree at Edgewater Park, or cool off with a swim at Honeymoon Island State Park, just a short drive away.

Bonus tip: Don’t try to pack everything into one day—give yourself time to explore. Dunedin shines when you slow down. Let Pride be the reason you came, and the city be the reason you stay a little longer.
