Pride Month is almost here in NYC and we’re ready to celebrate! We’re waving our flags, donning our best fits, and feeling pumped for what the city has in store. (We'll be compiling all the best Pride events here, so stay tuned.)

Join in on the Pride March through the West Village or giant parties at your favorite gay bars with the LGBTQ+ community.

What's this year's NYC Pride theme?

NYC Pride 2025's theme is "Rise up: Pride in Protest." It's a more defiant stance compared to recent years. "As the LGBTQIA+ community faces increasing hostility and legislative attacks, this year’s theme is a reflection of the Pride movement’s origins in protest—and is a powerful call to action for our communities and allies to rally and march in defiant celebration, advocacy and solidarity," their website reads.
