From the exclusive Pride Opera Night at the grand War Memorial Opera House, to the vibrant Dyke March through the Mission District, and the iconic drag queen parties like the legendary Juanita MORE! benefit — supporting The Q Foundation — San Francisco Pride overflows with festive, artistic, and activist energy.
All throughout June, the city pulses with the theme “Queer Joy is Resistance.” Discover the full program on the official website: sfpride.org/events
But the main event is undoubtedly the Grand Parade on Sunday, June 29, 2025 along Market Street — a centerpiece of Pride, symbolizing visibility, unity, and celebration, drawing hundreds of thousands of people to honor love in all its forms.

The Grand Pride Parade will take place on Sunday, June 29, 2025, starting at 10:30 a.m., traveling down Market Street from the Embarcadero to Civic Center — and you can be a part of it, for example, by marching with the European contingent.
France will once again join the “Europe for Pride 2025” group, which brings together the consular representations of European countries in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Participation is free and open to all — simply register using this link:
You are warmly encouraged to wear your country’s colors to showcase the richness of European diversity.
