Trans Pride Seattle is a free annual festival celebrating Trans life and community across the Pacific Northwest and beyond! A love letter to Trans people everywhere, TPS increases the strength of the TwoSpirit, Trans, & Gender Diverse (2STGD) community and our allies through increased visibility, connection, love, and the celebration of our lives.

Everyone who supports + affirms Trans life is invited to enjoy our stage show featuring a lineup of all-Trans talent and our tabling fair featuring 100+ Trans-led and affirming orgs, community groups, artists, and services; and to find and bask in community among the thousands of attendees who gather to celebrate, to resist, and to show that Trans people aren’t going anywhere.
Produced by Gender Justice League in collaboration with many incredible volunteers, sponsors, and community donors who help make this event possible every year since 2013!

Reykjavik Pride Parade
2025-08-09 14:00 - 17:00
Reykjavik Pride Parade
Our parade gets bigger and more fabulous every year but we still want every group to convey some message that addresses the realities of LGBTQ people. There are an infinite number of possible messages so participants’ creativity is key. To ensure your group is the best it can be it is recommended to start preparing early. A good show does not have to cost much, what is most important is imagination and getting help from friends and family.
The Reykjavík Pride Parade 2025 will take place on Saturday, August 9.

Fierte Montreal Pride Parade
2025-08-10 13:00 - 16:30 | Montreal, Montreal, Canada
Montreal Pride Parade
Join thousands of marchers to celebrate the advances of the 2SLGBTQIA+ communities’ rights, and to amplify our demands. Following the parading contingents, we invite all attendees to join the march and to conclude the Pride Parade in a festive and citizen-like manner. Come march or attend the parade to show your support for the 2SLGBTQIA+ communities!
Approximately 2.2km long, the route will symbolically begin in the former 2SLGBTQIA+ sector to the west (at the corner of René-Lévesque Blvd. and Metcalfe St.) and end in the heart of the current Village to the east (at the corner of René-Lévesque Blvd. and Atataken St.).
THEME – Blossom here, now!
Blossom here, now means asserting our right to grow, to fully shine, and to love freely. We grow together, bound by our stories, our struggles, and our pride.
Blossom here, now means turning a garden of thorns into an untamed field of a thousand colors. It means weeding out the soil of adversity.
Blossom here, now means celebrating our existence and identities in a meadow where every struggle is a budding hope.
AFTER THE PARADE
After the Pride Parade, join the party at the Olympic Park’s Esplanade for the Mega T-Dance.
