This Is When & Where Your Local Pride Parade Will Happen This June, So Get Ready!

June is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month, which means LGBTQ+ Pride parades, festivals, and celebrations are taking place across the country. If you're wondering when the Pride parade is near me, I've got your back. Below is a list of every official U.S. Pride event happening throughout the month of June. While some U.S. cities celebrate Pride on a specific day or weekend in June, other celebrations last for an entire week or more. In addition to the traditional Pride parade, there are often other festive activities and forms of entertainment, including musical performances, dance parties, celebrity guests, and more.

Some cities require you to purchase parade tickets ahead of time and/or pre-register large groups of people. There are also many opportunities to volunteer during Pride. Be sure to check out all the guidelines and prices on your city's Pride website before the big day. Some of the organizations on this list may not have announced the official dates or times for their 2018 events at the time of this article's publication. Be sure to check out the International Gay & Lesbian Travel Association's website for a periodically updated calendar of 2018 Pride events happening around the United States as well as across the world.
