The Rally

Before we march, we gather to listen, learn, and ignite the spark of change.

Expect inspiring speeches from LGBTQIA+ activists and allies, personal stories from community members, updates on current LGBTQIA+ issues and progress, a moment of silence to remember those we’ve lost

The Rally reminds us why we march. It’s where we find our voice, our community, and our resolve.

The March

Led by the thunderous Dykes on Bikes, featuring the historic Gilbert Baker Memorial Rainbow Flag, community groups and allies marching side by side, and colourful floats and performances along the route

Who can march?

Everyone! Whether you’re LGBTQIA+, an ally, or simply believe in equality and love, you’re welcome to join us.
