PRIDE 25: Pride Winnipeg 2012

SUNDAY JUNE 3RD

11AM – 6:30PM

Thousands of people are expected to mark the historic occasion of our 25th anniversary by participating in the 2012 Pride Winnipeg celebrations, which include the Rally, Parade through downtown Winnipeg, and outdoor Festival at the Forks. As always, Pride Day events are FREE and open to the public!

RALLY: 11:00 a.m. at the Manitoba Legislative Building (Broadway and Memorial Blvd.)

Join thousands of others on the steps of the Manitoba legislature to get pumped for Pride! Live music from Energy 106 will get everyone revved up for the Pride Parade through downtown that follows. Don’t miss this rousing Pride Day kick-off event – come loud and proud!

PRIDE PARADE: 12:00 p.m. through downtown

Thousands of people are expected to join in the annual Pride Parade and march together through downtown Winnipeg to commemorate 25 years of Pride in Winnipeg! We want to fill the streets with
floats and walking groups and show off our city’s rainbow colours! Contact our Parade Coordinator at parade@pridewinnipeg.com to find out how you can participate.

FESTIVAL:1 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. at The Forks (Free!)

After the parade ends at the grounds of the Manitoba legislature (see parade route map), make your way to The Forks where we have incredible live entertainment beginning at 1:30 pm on the main stage, headlined by ANJULIE and THE CLIKS! Meet community groups, businesses, and local artisans in the Lambda PrideMART. Adults (18+) can quench their thirst at the beer tent featuring Pride Winnipeg’s own Queer Beer. Children and families have their own place to play at the Manitoba Teachers’ Society KidZone. Two food vendor villages will ensure that no one goes home hungry!

Pride 25 is bound to be THE Pride of the Prairies – we look forward to seeing you there!
