27th Annual WMPPD
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2026
10am-6pm
Join us to celebrate earth-centered spiritual traditions of Paganism and the turning of the wheel to Autumn! Enjoy fantastic vendors, performances, workshops and facepainting!
Did you know that this is also a fundraising event? Last year we raised an amazing $2319.70 for the Northampton Survival Center, our charity of choice, and we are excited to partner once again with the Survival Center this year. Donate to the Northampton Survival Center in our name.
What To Expect
Since 2000, Western MA Pagan Pride day is one of many Pagan Pride Day events that take place worldwide. As a nonprofit organization we strive to establish awareness of earth-centered spiritual traditions in our local communities. People of all faiths (or none) and walks of life are invited to join us on Saturday, September 26, 2026, 10:00 am through 6:00 pm.
There is no admission fee to the event, however we ask that you bring a cash donation for our charity drive. We will be collecting cash donations for our favorite charity, the Northampton Survival Center.
You can come expecting to find information about paganism in many of its forms, experience an open harvest ritual, workshops (classes) and many vendors for a fun, family friendly, community-driven event. There are a number of restaurants and cafes in the area, so plan to stay a while! Click through this website for more info on Workshops, Performers, and ongoing events.
Our Location
We will be in downtown Northampton, in the plaza at Kirkland Ave where the Tuesday Farmers Market takes place. This is between the Parking Garage and the back of Thorne’s Marketplace. You can park in the garage that overlooks our site – the first hour is always free.
Statement of Inclusivity
Western Mass Pagan Pride Day is an open and affirming event. We welcome all people of all beliefs or none, of all colors, genders and sexes, and expressions of sexuality, with open arms. You are welcome at WMPPD. We do not tolerate any form of prejudice or discrimination based on any of these factors. We affirm that every person has the right to be and identify in any way they choose.
Trans Inclusion Statement
We affirm that trans women are women, trans men are men; that there are scientifically and socially more than two sexes and genders; and that we are all equal and worthy of respect and dignity as human beings.
We will not support intolerance or prejudice toward others, especially based on the classes mentioned above.
Disclaimer
Pagan Pride Day is an educational event with the goal of informing the public about modern pagan life. Most, if not all, of our merchants, presenters, performers, and volunteer staff are practitioners of or adherents to some form of contemporary paganism. Together we form a rich tapestry of practices, beliefs, and values; however, no one of us speaks for all of paganism or even for all of our own traditions, and we encourage visitors to WMPPD to investigate many aspects and speak to many practitioners in order to gain a fuller comprehension of contemporary paganism.
WMPPD as an organization should not be understood to endorse or support any particular statement made by any of its participants, or any products offered by our vendors.
