“Pride Under The Pines was created out of love for Idyllwild and a sense of community,” said PS HomeBoys’ co-owners Niels and Jeremy who fell in love with the town of Idyllwild and the Rustic Theatre. Pride Under The Pines was first conceived in 2021 in response to limitations brought about by COVID-19, as PS Homeboys, two gay entrepreneurs, got together and said – “We’re coming out: out into the open and up on the mountain for the first-ever Pride Under the Pines.”
Celebrating the festival’s previous two year’s attendance which totaled over 2500 guests and welcomed guests of all ages, races, and ethnicities, from across Southern California who enjoy the venue’s rustic roots, fresh mountain air, and beautiful pine trees. Idyllwild residents were reported as feeling equally excited for the third edition of the Pride Under The Pines as restaurants, hotels, and other local businesses love the uptick in tourism and getting to meet the festival’s prideful supporters who come out to their picturesque desert town to show their love for the LGBTQ+ community.
