What to know about this year's NYC Pride March

Marking the culmination of Pride Month in the city, the pièce de résistance is undoubtedly the NYC Pride March. And it’s happening this weekend.

Sunday, June 29 marks the annual Pride March in NYC, commemorating LBGTQIA+ rights and the people who have fought, protested, and spoken out for their rights. Heritage of Pride is the nonprofit organization that plans and produces NYC’s official LGBTQIA+ Pride events each year.

This year’s theme is “Rise Up: Pride in Protest,” which honors the legacy of the very first Pride March in 1970. That march, at the time, marked one year since the Stonewall Riots.
