When is Pride Month? All of June. And in Springfield, it shows up in the streets, the storefronts, and the community organizations that make Western Massachusetts one of the more openly inclusive regions in New England. Springfield Pride has grown into a meaningful annual celebration that draws attendees from across Hampden County and neighboring Connecticut, and Zaza Green is proud to be part of it.
Springfield Pride Parade and Festival: What’s Coming in 2026
On Saturday, June 6th, the Springfield Pride Parade is one of the most recognizable LGBTQ+ events in Western Massachusetts. It brings together local businesses, advocacy organizations, performers, community groups, and vendors in downtown Springfield in a format that’s equal parts celebration and visibility.
MGM Springfield, the Springfield Museums, and The Quadrangle cultural district are all in the same downtown core, making it easy to build a full day around the parade and the neighborhood.
Zaza Green will have a booth at the 2026 Springfield Pride event. That means you’ll find us out in the community, talking to people, representing the dispensary, and showing up the way we believe a Springfield business should during Pride month.
For confirmed 2026 Pride Parade route details, dates, and vendor information, check the official Springfield Pride Parade website. If you’re attending and want to connect with local LGBTQ+ organizations or volunteer, this organization maintains updated contact and participation information.
How to Celebrate Pride: LGBTQ+ Cannabis Brands at Zaza Green
One of the most direct ways to support the community this June is to put your purchases behind brands built by and for LGBTQ+ people and allies. Zaza carries two this month worth knowing:
Queer in Cannabis (QIC) is an LGBTQ+-focused cannabis community and brand initiative with real roots in the community it represents. Check our current menu for what’s in.
Advanced Cultivators is a Massachusetts cannabis brand available at Zaza Green. Verify current product availability and any Pride Month brand activations directly on our live menu.
Both brands sit alongside our hand-selected premium flower and pre-roll selection. If you want help finding something specific, our knowledgeable staff is here, whether you’re new to the dispensary or a regular who wants to know what’s new for June.
Beyond the Springfield parade, Pride Month in the city runs throughout June. Forest Park, Springfield’s expansive urban green space, has been a gathering area for community events during the summer.
For the parade and festival itself: arrive early if you’re driving, since downtown parking fills quickly around major events. Stay hydrated during June afternoons, support local LGBTQ+-owned vendors and performers, and check the most current schedule before the event.
