In a city that has long embraced alternative lifestyles, the San Francisco Pride weekend is a true celebration of equality, love, and expression.
The festivities can be way, way over the top-so be prepared and reconsider if you want to bring the kids and don’t want to do some explaining. There are events throughout the month as part of Pride Month, but it all culminates with the final weekend when up to a million visitors-which more than doubles the population of the city-flock to this event, the largest annual LGBTQ gathering in the world. Loud, raucous, and irreverent, the rainbow-hued late-June extravaganza that is the San Francisco Pride Parade & Celebration is the City by the Bay’s celebration of all things LGBTQ.
