Take Pride! Seattle is back and just in time for Pride Month. Get out, get wild and give back with these three can’t-miss events.
Capital Hill’s Pride March + Rally
Let there be Pride! Restrictions aren’t holding Seattle back this year. June 25th-26th will there be a march and rally held at Cal Anderson Park’s Bobby Morris Playfield with the intention of commemorating Stonewall, beginning at 10am both days. Events will last into the evening, including a block party with the famed “Doggie Drag Show” as well as a talent show, musicians, artists and much more. Who cares about getting back to normal, or to a new normal - let’s get weird! Memorialize a defining moment in LGTQIA+ history, bask in Seattle’s re-opening and celebrate Pride out in the open, surrounded by the ones you love!
