June 3, Ferndale, MI. facebook.com/ferndalepride. Before there was the Motor City Pride celebration, Metro-Detroit celebrated pride month in Ferndale, one of Michigan’s most infamous gayborhoods. This pride event has the size of a large scale event, but the heart of a small town. Stroll the charming streets of Ferndale while checking out over a hundred local vendors, snack on meals from local food trucks, sip on cocktails from the many bars or beer tents.
