Become a sponsor!

This year's Pride event will look a little different, but it promises to be our biggest and best yet: games, food trucks, and a prom.

All the events will take place under one roof.

While the event space does not allow for a vendor market (no for sale items allowed), it does offer the safety and security of a private venue, is fully air conditioned (a premium in June), and allows all of the activities to happen in one spot.

Bronze Sponsors of $100 or more will receive a certificate of sponsorship, a rainbow window cling they can display to promote they are an LGBTQIA+ community ally, and recognition on the day of the event.

Silver Sponsors of $250 or more will receive the aforementioned items, and their business information/logo will be listed on our website as a safe place for LGBTQIA+ individuals to support.

Gold Sponsors of $500 or more will receive the aforementioned items, and 2 free PFLAG Niceville t-shirts.

Rainbow Sponsors of $1000 or more will receive all of the aforementioned items, and permission to set-up INSIDE the event building. No for sale items. No tents allowed on premises. 8ft table provided.
