What is the Pride Passport?
The Pride Passport is a free, limited-edition booklet you can use to collect stamps at 2025 Kentucky Pride events. Earn stamps, win prizes, and gain access to the Pride of the Commonwealth Gala. It’s a joyful, statewide celebration of LGBTQIA visibility, community, and solidarity.
Pride is still a protest. In a year of attacks on our rights and visibility, the Passport is one way we show up—loud, proud, and everywhere. Every stamp is a stand. Every photo is resistance. This is how we take up space in every corner of the Commonwealth.
How do I get a Passport?
Passports are free, but they must be registered through our website.
- Register through the Passport form [INSERT LINK]
- Pick one up at a participating Pride event (when available)

Registration is required before receiving a Passport. You’ll get a confirmation code to show at pickup.
Can I get free shipping?
Yes! Shipping is waived if you order any other merch item or donate $45 or more in the same checkout. Your support helps fund more Passport printing.
How do I earn a stamp?
Bring your registered Passport to the event and get it physically stamped
Post a photo from the event, tagging the Council and using both hashtags:
#PridePassportKY and #WeAreKentucky
Both the stamp and the social post are required.

You can still earn credit by posting a photo from the event with the required hashtags. We’ll count it as a digital stamp.

I’m having a party or I own a business. Can I hand out Passports?
Passports are only distributed directly by the Council to ensure data collection and prize verification. However, businesses can apply to sponsor a stop on the Rainbow Express Route and receive a custom stamp design, as well as community visibility.
