Pride on Portage: Celebrating the Diverse Community That Makes Cuyahoga Falls Feel Like Home

Come celebrate who you are — and the community that loves you for it.
On Saturday, June 27th, the businesses lining the downtown portion of Portage Trail are throwing open their doors for Pride on Portage — a joyful, LGBTQ+ Pride celebration honoring the diverse, vibrant community that makes Cuyahoga Falls the special place it is. Neighboring downtown businesses will be joining in too, making this a true neighborhood-wide declaration that in this community, everyone belongs.
Whether you're a member of the LGBTQ+ community, an ally, a longtime local, or someone discovering downtown Cuyahoga Falls for the first time — there is a place for you here, and we are so glad you came. Come out, come proud, and come ready to celebrate.
