NYC Pride March 2026

The NYC Pride March is the world's oldest and most significant LGBTQ+ civil rights demonstration, held on the last Sunday of June in New York City. The 2026 march, under the theme "For All of Us," draws over 75,000 marchers and 2.5 million spectators along Fifth Avenue and Seventh Avenue through Greenwich Village — where the Stonewall Uprising of 1969 ignited the global rights movement.

The march begins at 26th Street and Fifth Avenue, turning down to Seventh Avenue through the West Village and ending at Christopher Street — Stonewall's address. The route is deliberately unchanged from the first march in 1970: walking the same path as the pioneers of gay liberation gives the event an emotional gravity no other pride can replicate.

NYC Pride week (June 22-28) surrounds the march with PrideFest on Christopher Street — the largest LGBTQ+ street fair in the US — the Rally, Marsha's Plate community dinners, Dance on the Pier, and dozens of official and satellite events across Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens.
