Dear Friends,

Welcome to RAINBOW FESTIVAL 2012

Held in the heart of midtown Sacramento’s Gay and Lesbian Community. The core purpose of Rainbow Festival is twofold: To raise money for charities that have significant importance to the Lesbian and Gay Community and to raise public awareness of those charities; to create a celebration of our Pride that is pure fun!
