Inspired by the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, the Sacramento Pride March returns live on Sunday, June 15, 2025, at 11 a.m. The march will comprise walking contingents, vehicle contingents, and large floats.
Join thousands of your closest friends to cheer on marchers, colorful floats, music, and much more for the annual Sacramento Pride March. Harkening back to the earliest days of Pride events as protests against oppression, this event is both a demonstration of activism in our pursuit of equity and social justice as well as a celebration of diverse Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Asexual, and two-spirit communities and culture. Free for community members to view! Questions? Please email pride.march@saccenter.org
