The Big Gay 5K

🏳️‍🌈💔 Sad but Fabulous News 💔🏳️‍🌈

We’ve got a little glittery hiccup…
The Big Gay 5K is officially rescheduled for 2026. 💅

Due to circumstances out of our control (and not enough sequins in the universe to fix it right now), we’ve made the tough decision to reschedule.

✨If you already registered, check your email for refund details and options—we’ve got you covered like the fierce community we are. ✨

We’re SO grateful for your support, your sparkle, and your spirit. And when we come back in 2026….Oh honey, it’s gonna be bigger, gayer, and more fabulous than ever. 💃🌈

Love you mean it,
🏃‍♀️💖 The Big Gay 5K Team

Looks like Key West Pride will be a little later in 2025! We are working hard to coordinate with everyone and get next year's race planned! We will let all of you know as soon as we have details!

As many of you know, World Pride 2025, will be held in Washington DC, may 23 through June 8th, 2025. We have made the decision to change the dates of Key West Pride, so there is no conflict with those wanting to attend the World Pride Celebration. The new dates for Key West Pride, 2025, now a full week of activities, will be June 22 through June 28th. We will be posting about hotel reservation discounts and other need to know information as it becomes available.

We are still on a high from this weekend! We were lucky enough to be asked to participate in Sunday's Key West Pride parade and LOVED seeing so many of our Big Gay 5K family on the route (especially those of you that yelled out for us or handed us shots - you know who you are)!

We are already hard at work planning The Big Gay 5K 3.0! Don't forget to send us any feedback on the race - just shoot us a DM!

We are committed to being a safe & fun event that adds to the amazing and colorful fabric of the Key West community and helps show support for our LGBTQ+ friends and family! This race is for YOU!

If you post any photos or recaps of the event, be sure to tag us!
