Pride March 2025 NYC: reference to the parade, avenue closures and best places to watch
New York City's massive Pride celebrations contain a deep and essential history in the city. The first march was held in 1970 one year after the Stonewall Uprising, and the event has grown into an annual civil rights demonstration. Fast forward to 2025, and a Pride pride feels just as vital and relevant as it did 55 years ago: Earlier this year, the government erased mention of trans people on the Stonewall National Monument's website.
While many colloquially call the event the Pride Parade, organizers cite to it as The March as a nod to the event’s heritage. After all, the first march was once an unpermitted political protest against anti-LGBTQ+ policies and attitudes.
This year, activists and allies will take to the streets (and later NYC’s gay bars) in support of global Queer rights at the NYC Pride March on Sunday, June 29. In recent years, The March has grown to include more than 700 groups with millions of spectators.
