The Capital Pride Alliance will host the inaugural Colorful Fest, presented by Xfinity and Nissan, on Sunday, October 17. Organizers are hoping the event, which serves as a fundraiser for the Capital Pride Alliance and its GivePride365 Fund, which supports local charities and nonprofits, will become a new annual tradition, offering a fall-time event for the LGBTQ community to come together and celebrate its pride. The Colorful Fest will feature two parts: a block party and a street fair. Admission to the block party is $5, and all attendees must provide proof of vaccination to enter the parking lot. “Our goal is, as it is with the different stages of the Pride Festival, to show a variety of different types of talent,” Bos said.
