San Francisco Pride Parade 2025: Route, date, time and where to watch
As June comes to a close, so does Pride Month, both a protest and celebration of LGBTQ+ culture in the United States.
Throughout June, countless communities have hosted Pridefests and parades, an opportunity for queer individuals to gather to dance and sing, eat, learn and march together. To wrap up the final weekend of Pride Month, San Francisco is hosting a two-day festival with the theme "Queer Joy is Resistance."
San Francisco Pride festivities kick off early Saturday, June 28, with a breakfast at the San Francisco Civic Center, followed by a full day of live entertainment. Sunday, June 29 gets started with the 55th annual San Francisco Pride Parade, a long-standing tradition in both the city and LGBTQ+ community at large.
