Join us for a one-of-a-kind Pride celebration set against the backdrop of one of DC’s most iconic and historic resting places. Gays & Graves: A Big Gay Festival is a joyful gathering that honors LGBTQ+ history, creativity, and community spirit—all in one vibrant day of fun, reflection, and Pride.

Wander through a lively outdoor market showcasing LGBTQ+ artists, makers, and small businesses offering handmade goods, art, tasty treats, and more. Enjoy an inclusive, welcoming atmosphere filled with color, community, and connection.

Throughout the day, our historic chapel will host engaging programming centered on LGBTQ+ history.
We are proud to be the final resting place of many LGBTQ+ pioneers and activists—offering a unique opportunity to celebrate Pride while honoring those who came before us.
