This year, the march will start close to Madison Square Park and end at 23rd Street and Seventh Avenue. Approximately 2 million people attend the event in a regular year, but the WorldPride celebration all but guarantees that this year’s will be a huge blowout.
Millions of visitors are expected to descend upon NYC for the festivities, which include an opening ceremony, concerts, a massive street festival, and conferences.īut even with all of those new events (and plenty of historic sites and new LGBT memorials to visit if you’re in town for Pride, as well as local festivals like the Dyke March), the biggest shebang is still the Pride March, happening on Sunday, June 30.
NYC Pride is here! And this year-the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising-is a big one for New York’s LGBTQ community: The city is hosting WorldPride, a massive, monthlong celebration of the LGTBQ community around the globe.
