Pride is expected to welcome almost two million participants during the festival weekend and Sunday parade, all coming to celebrate the 2016 theme of Racial and Economic Justice for All. This year, the cast of Transcendent will serve as celebrity Grand Marshal, Peaches will perform at the Main Stage celebration at Civic Center, and Black Lives Matter has been selected as Community Grand Marshal by local voters. The City by the Bay will host its 46th Pride celebration on Saturday, June 25 and Sunday, June 26.
San Francisco has changed radically since 1970, going from a sleepy artistic backwater to international powerhouse, but one thing remains the same: each June it’s time to celebrate loud and proud.
