Race Information

The Berkshire Pride 5K and 1 mile Walk kicks off Pride Month for the City of Pittsfield. It serves as a fundraiser for Berkshire Pride and supports the Pride Festival that takes place at the First Street Common.

Berkshire Pride is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization. The mission is to provide safe spaces and events where LGBTQIA+ community members can live and thrive as their authentic selves, not only during Pride Month, but throughout the year.

Berkshire Pride Fest is the Berkshires’ annual LGBTQIA+ Pride Festival & Parade. Started in 2017, Berkshire Pride welcomes over 1,000 members of the LGBTQIA+ community in The Berkshires and beyond. Every June, with community partners, they come together to show their pride, celebrate successes, and stand in solidarity for the marginalized.
