Pride week Charleston Style: Charting a Course for Change By Sabrina Samone, TMP Finally, it’s that time again peeps, to don your rainbow apparel for Charleston Pride week 2013. In 2010, Charleston Pride held its first Pride weekend in North Charleston as an alternative to the event in Columbia, for South Carolina’s largest LGBT community which lies in the Charleston Metro area.

Every year it has grown and with the main focus, the parade, now being accepted by Charleston Mayor Joe Riley, the crowd is expected to be the largest Pride Event in South Carolina for a parade down king street in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. This year, the weeklong event is packed with activities for everyone regardless of age.
