Lace up your shoes for the Denver Pride 5K on Saturday, June 27, 2026, an inspiring 3.1-mile journey through the heart of Denver, Colorado. This vibrant event is much more than a race; it's a powerful fundraiser for The Center on Colfax, dedicated to providing essential services and programs for Colorado's LGBTQ+ community and its allies year-round. Starting on Lincoln between Colfax and 14th, just west of the iconic State Capitol, the course offers a unique blend of urban energy and scenic beauty, leading participants to Cheesman Park and back.

Runners, walkers, rollers, and even those who prefer to sashay are all enthusiastically welcomed to experience the electric atmosphere that defines Denver Pride. The route itself presents a dynamic challenge, with some participants noting it's "hilly at times," providing both invigorating ascents and enjoyable downhills. This inclusive event is a highlight of Denver Pride, one of the largest LGBTQ+ Pride celebrations in the Rocky Mountain region, attracting thousands of participants and spectators alike. Typical race day conditions in late June can be warm, with historical highs around 89°F and lows around 57°F, accompanied by a low chance of precipitation.

Joining the Denver Pride 5K means becoming part of a supportive and celebratory community, actively contributing to vital services that strengthen and uplift LGBTQ+ individuals. With past events raising over $240,000, your participation directly helps The Center on Colfax continue its impactful work. Expect a race filled with camaraderie, love, and a strong sense of collective purpose as you cross the finish line near Civic Center Park.
