Sacred Roller Skate Supply Returns 2026
This year’s festival features amazing vendors, artists, performers, and a brand new addition:a Roller Disco with partners Sacred Roller Skate Supply.
Sacred Roller Skate Supply - Rolling with Heart in Herndon
Located at 681 Monroe St., Herndon, Sacred Roller Skate Supply is more than a skate shop — it’s a love letter to community, connection, and the freedom of movement.
Founded by longtime Herndon resident Katie McDonald, Sacred Roller began with a simple Valentine’s Day gift: a pair of roller skates from their husband. That spark ignited a deep passion for the sport — and revealed a gap in local access to quality skating gear and support. Katie stepped up to fill it.
The name “Sacred” reflects what skating means to them: a powerful mix of strength, fearlessness, and belonging. Their shop fosters a judgment-free space where beginners and seasoned skaters alike can connect, gear up, and grow together.
Katie’s mantra? - “Come for the skates; stay for the camaraderie and good vibes.”
Opening Sacred Roller in their hometown is Katie’s way of giving back to the community that shaped them. Whether you’re just lacing up or already living on wheels, Sacred Roller Skate Supply welcomes you to roll with purpose — and plenty of joy.
HerndonPRIDE 2025 was a tremendous success—and it wouldn’t have happened without the support of so many.
A heartfelt thank you to the incredible team who expedited our event license and helped bring this celebration to life. The day was filled with energy, joy, and a powerful sense of community.
We transformed our space into a full performance venue, expanded outdoors with tents and shade, and welcomed valued partners including Herndon Friends Quakers, PFLAG, Free Mom Hugs, Dulles Triangles, local churches, and Supervisor Jimmy Bierman’s office. By encouraging attendees to support local restaurants instead of food trucks, many businesses saw a meaningful boost during the festival.
Our planning partner and co-host, Sacred Skates Supply, was instrumental in making it all happen. Thanks to Supervisor Bierman, HerndonPRIDE t-shirts sold out by midday, while DJ Trevor and Pat Macintyre kept the building alive with music and celebration. The evening concert, featuring DruidStone and other bands, was a perfect finale.
A highlight of the day was welcoming leadership from Reston Pride, opening the door to a potential joint event in 2026.
Thank you to everyone who attended, performed, and supported this special day. HerndonPRIDE is about building community through the arts—and this year, we truly did just that.
Thank you so very much,
Jo
