Mark your calendars: Ferndale Pride is in downtown Ferndale on Saturday, May 31st, 2025. The party kicks off with an opening ceremony at 12:30p, vendors and stages open at 1p, and the energy keeps going until 10p (with some afterparties stretching later).
On our Daily Detroit podcast, Julia shares some behind-the-scenes info on putting together the 15th annual Pride, including how community support made a huge difference this year.
Find out about the incredible (and free!) entertainment, including headliners like the reigning Miss Trans Michigan, Baddie Brooks, on the performance stage, and legendary DJ Stacey Hotwaxx Hale plus DJ Remarkable spinning on the Woodward Dance Stage.
Jer and Julia also chat about:
- The importance of Ferndale as a community hub
- Cool events leading up to the big day (like the Small Packages Art Show, Pokemon Trivia, Sobriety Tea Dance, and the Golf Scramble)
- Where exactly the festival takes place (along 9 Mile between Woodward and Livernois)
- Daily Detroit's plans to be there (come find their flower arch!)
