VANCOUVER PRIDE PARADE & DAVIE VILLAGE PRIDE FESTIVAL
August 3
Downtown Vancouver
The largest Pride parade in Western Canada takes over the streets of Vancouver. Over 160 entries march through Yaletown to the West End. Grab your friends and find your favorite place along the route. The parade starts at a new time 1pm at Concord Pacific Park with emcee hosts at BC Place and University Canada West Plaza.
This year PrideFest will stretch into Nelson Park, offering all ages programming and ASL interpretation from 2 to 9 pm. Activities such as button pressing, colouring and ribbon making will be available, as well as queer artisans and community resources. The Concord Pacific Community Stage in Nelson Park will feature live music from local queer bands, creating a space that uplifts community voices and talents. Programming at Nelson Park also honours history – it was the starting point of the very first Vancouver Pride Parade in 1981 – celebrating the legacy and resilience of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.
Davie Village is celebrating loud and proud this Pride! After a six-year hiatus, the iconic Davie Village Pride Festival is making its highly anticipated return on Sunday, August 3, 2025, from 2 to 10 pm, re-establishing itself as a cornerstone event of the 47th Vancouver Pride Festival. Presented in partnership by the West End BIA, Vancouver Pride Society and QMUNITY, the festival will transform Davie Street, from Burrard to Jervis, into a high-energy inclusive celebration. The TD Main Stage will be the centre of attention featuring live music, drag performances, and DJs. Licensed lounges, extended patios, and local businesses will spill out onto the street to welcome festival goers.
