Taichung Pride 2026 (台中彩虹遊行) is organised by the Taiwan GDi Association and takes place on the afternoon of Saturday November 14 at Wenxin Forest Park in Nantun District. This year's theme is "Coming Home" (回家): an invitation to return to your hometown, look back at how equality, democracy, human rights, arts, culture, religion and migration have developed in central Taiwan, and stand with the groups that keep working here.
