Throughout the day, attendees enjoyed live music, sweet treats, and access to the mountain’s hiking and biking trails. At 1 p.m., a group Pride Ride descended the Ripple trail from the top of the Homestake Express Chairlift, wrapping the event in motion and unity.

A donation-based opportunity drawing benefited Summit Pride, the local nonprofit at the heart of the event. Originally formed by Park City Municipal in 2021 as the Park City LGBTQ+ Taskforce, Summit Pride became a 501(c)(3) in 2024. The organization has since grown into an independent coalition of queer residents from across the Wasatch Back, collaborating on advocacy, social events, and charitable programs that foster connection and belonging.

Deer Valley will additionally contribute a portion of the weekend’s ticket sales to the organization, further supporting its work to sustain and amplify LGBTQ+ inclusivity in the Wasatch Back.
