Get Involved
Missoula Pride is at its foundation a community driven event, by the community for the community. We are seeking people for a wide range of involvement opportunities and we look forward to working with you to make our celebration a success.
Perform Drag or Variety
Missoula Pride invites you to step into the spotlight and embrace the artistry, glamour, and talent that define our culture. We celebrate the kaleidoscope of creativity that not only drag performers have, but that the whole spectrum of performers in this community bring to the stage.
Whether you’re a seasoned queen, a budding king, or a gender-bending enigma, we welcome all shades of fabulousness. Our mission? To curate unforgettable performances that leave audiences spellbound and craving more during this year's Missoula Pride 2024.
​
Thank you to all of the incredible talent who shared their gifts and artistry throughout the weekend and beyond!
Volunteer
Missoula Pride will not be possible without the help of volunteers from the community like you! For as little as an hour of your time, you could be part of bringing this event to life. Volunteer responsibilities could be things like:
​
-
Set up and tear down for the street party
-
Parade coordination
-
Greeting and hosting at the door
-
Staffing the information table
-
and more!
​
Thank you to our more than 150 volunteers who made the 2024 Missoula Pride possible!

Apply to Vend
Surprise! We've got TWO days of fun in store for you with the 2024 Block Party! We are overjoyed at the number of people reaching out to us about vending. Thank you!
This also means we likely will not be able to accommodate everyone. We are going to do our best to support our LGBTQ+ community and local vendors, both new and well established.
Submitting an application is not a guarantee of space. Applications are due May 17th, and selections will be made by May 20th. Thanks for your support as we navigate this exciting new phase of Missoula Pride!​
​
Thank you to our more than 70 makers, artists, non-profits, food stands and businesses who participated!
This year, we intentionally re-allocated unused sponsor vending space to applicants who indicated the cost was a barrier, and fulfilled every single request - allowing more local vendors to participate at ZERO cost to them.
