Prince George Pride Parade

Saturday, July 7, 2012

What started as a small parade of 140 people in 1997 has grown into a Parade of over 400 attendees ranging from individuals, community organizations and businesses.

In 1997, Prince George held the very first Pride Parade in Northern British Columbia. Since then the Prince George Pride Parade has blossomed into a one of a kind Parade that attracts not only supporters of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transsexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer, Questioning, 2 Spirited (LGBTTIQQ2S) community in Prince George, but our friends across the region and Alberta. Along with all other Pride Parades in British Columbia, ours continues to grow and represent the LGBT communities who continue to fight hard for their human rights. The bigger we get the more fun we have and the more we showcase the proud diversity we all share.

The Parade begins at City Hall in downtown Prince George and continues its circuit through the downtown core, passing many local businesses, the Farmers Market, the Court House then back to City Hall where everyone is welcome to stay for food, entertainment and activities for the afternoon.
