Welcome to Patch Minute, a preview of big events in your area this weekend.

Saturday, June 28, marks the 11th annual St. Pete Pride street festival. The free event begins at 9 a.m. and lasts until 4 p.m. More than 100 businesses and vendors set up on Central Avenue between 21st and 29th streets to support LGBT communities in Pinellas County. 

It's one of the biggest events of the year in the Tampa Bay area, and given recent news, the festival is expected to be extra celebratory. 

Also be on the lookout for Fourth of July festivities going on in your area in the days ahead. Fireworks celebrations and parades take place all around the county, including in Safety Harbor, Largo, Clearwater, Dunedin and Gulfport.
