Chicago's Pride celebration consists of a entire month of festivities and events, culminating with the Chicago Pride Parade, which traditionally takes place the last Sunday of June.
Chicago Pride Fest takes place along North Halsted St. in the North Side neighborhood colloquially referred to a ‘Boystown’ the weekend prior to the parade.
The Chicago Pride Parade (June 29, 11am)
The 54th annual Chicago Pride Parade steps off at 11 a.m. on Sunday, June 29, from the corners of Sheridan and Broadway ( North) on Chicago's north side.
The parade treks through the north side of the municipality, ending near the intersection of Diversey Parkway and Sheridan Road in Lincoln Park, walking through some of the city's most vibrant neighborhoods.
The annual pride, which started as a protest march in after the Stonewall Riots in New York City, has grown into the city's second-largest parade of nearly entries, typically attracting more than 1 million people to multiple northside neighborhoods, particularly East Lakeview.
