June 20 thru 22, 2008, Billings is once again playing host to the Montana LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender) Pride Celebration. The annual Montana Pride Celebration is an event put on by the Montana Pride Network whose mission is to produce annual statewide events that honor LGBTI Montanans and Two Spirit communities. This celebration takes place in order to bring together LGBT families, friends and allies and will bring folks from across the region to the Magic City. Past celebrations have been hosted in Bozeman, Helena, and Missoula. Last year’s celebration was the first time Billings hosted in over 10 years, and community support was overwhelming.
