Break out your colors—it’s time to show your PRIDE.

Every June, the Emerald City celebrates Pride month with a colorful lineup of festivities.

The always inspiring Seattle Pride Parade sashays through downtown on June 29, and the spirited (and free) PrideFest is June 28 in Capitol Hill and June 29 at Seattle Center.

Discover ways to connect with people and organizations around the city as you celebrate throughout the month of June.

And remember, Pride is much more than a month or a parade.
