San Diego Pride Parade
Register by July 1st, 2025 to secure your 2025 San Diego Pride T-Shirt included with your GO membership!
San Diego Pride was formed in 1974 as a sponsored program of The Center for Social Services, the organization produced the first Lesbian and Gay Parade in San Diego to celebrate the 1969 Stonewall Rebellion on New York’s Christopher Street. San Diego Pride incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in 1994, and today it continues to bring together the skills, talents, and visions of our diverse community through numerous programs.
San Diego Pride raises funds primarily through festival ticket and beverage sales, and through sponsorships, and exhibitor fees. These funds support San Diego Pride’s community philanthropy which has distributed more than $2.5 million in advancement of its mission to foster pride, equality, and respect for all lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender communities locally, nationally, and globally.
Day of instructions will be shared closer to the event.
We will be distributing as many of the tshirts as possible at the Rally and Happy Hour Friday the 18th. If you are joining us for the march but are unable to attend the rally, please reach out to Ryan Chambers (260)715-1210.
