Largo Celebrates Pride Month

Building the Community of Choice in Tampa Bay means creating a welcoming, equitable and compassionate Largo. Efforts to promote an inclusive city directly support our long-term focus on community pride and sustainability by enhancing the vitality of our community. To support these efforts and to join our neighboring communities, the City of Largo is participating in several activities and events throughout the month of June.

Be sure to follow the City of Largo on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for more ways to celebrate our community and stay connected.

Jen Kober, originally from Lake Charles, LA,  has energetically bounded onto the national stage bringing crowds to their feet with her original blend of stand-up, storytelling, and improvised rock-n-roll comedy.  Her hard-hitting hour is phenomenally funny as Kober commands the stage and dares you not to laugh. She is the winner of NPR’s Snap Judgement Comedic Performance of the Year for her Girl Scout Cookie story which went viral upon its release.  She can be seen on Disney+ in The Mandalorian and Diary of a Future President, on HBO’S Hacks, Showtime’s Black Monday and American Horror Story and Netflix: Dead to Me, Ru Paul’s AJ and the Queen.
