Marblehead set to celebrate Pride Month

Marblehead will kick off Pride Month celebrations with a pride flag raising at Abbot Hall on Saturday, June 1, at 3 p.m. There will be an ice cream truck, kids’ activities and community speakers. The event will be held rain or shine.

“This is the sixth time we have come together to raise the pride flag to celebrate, affirm, support and love our LGBTQ neighbors in Marblehead and beyond,” said Reece Dahlberg who sits on the Pride Committee.

“Each year the program includes speakers who share their stories so that our community can celebrate how far Marblehead has come while continuing to recognize that there is still work to be done.” This year’s speakers had not been announced as of press time.

On Sunday, June 2, 5-9 p.m., The Beacon Restaurant will host its annual pride party with music, food and drinks.
