Pride Month is back! For the month of June, area bars, restaurants and groups are celebrating with specials and festivities. Check out just a few that we have on our calendar:
H.G. Roosters Reopens
The legendary gay bar is back. After a destructive fire in 2020, the bar’s doors are finally open once more. It’s the state’s longest-serving LGBTQ bar, and in 2021, the West Palm Beach City Commission designated it as a historic site. As it celebrates its first Pride Month back in action, look forward to plenty of revelry.
