The Pierre Area Center for Equality is holding the 2nd annual Pierre Pride Festival tomorrow (Sat.) at the Ramkota Hotel and Convention Center in Pierre.
A handful of South Dakota towns held events during Pride Month in June, so PACE board member Peter Kleinpass says the Pierre group waited until this month.
Kleinpass says there will be two drag shows again this year.
Each drag shows will include both professional and local amateur talent. Find more details at https://www.pierreareapride.com/.
