Nice Pride — Pink Parade

Nice's Pink Parade is the city's pride march. It's organized by the association Aglaé and held on a Saturday afternoon in July, at the height of the Riviera summer.

The march is free and anyone can join. It sets off around 3:30pm from Place de l'Île de Beauté at the old port and follows the quays (Quai Papacino, Quai Lunel, Place Guynemer, Quai des États-Unis) onto the Promenade des Anglais. It finishes at the Théâtre de Verdure, where the Pink Party with DJs starts around 6pm. That part has a door queue, and in 2025 you could donate in advance to skip it. Bring water and sun protection, because there's little shade along the seafront.

The 2026 march was on Saturday 11 July under the motto "The future will be queer". The 2025 one was on 12 July. Neither the organizers nor the police published a headcount that we could find. The 2027 date hadn't been announced when we checked, but expect the second Saturday of July.
