The highlight of Pride Week is the parade. It will be held on Sunday, August 23, starting at 1 p.m. Please note that this year the parade route and Pride event location has changed.
The parade will start at the intersection of Bank Street and Gladstone Avenue, travel west on Gladstone Avenue to Kent Street, then north on Kent Street to Laurier Avenue, and east on Laurier Avenue back to Bank Street. The parade’s “big finish” at Bank and Somerset streets will draw it into the heart of Ottawa’s gay village and the location of the festival’s Community Fair.
Several City services will be participating in the parade under a common “Connect With Us” theme. Mayor Watson will ride on the Ottawa Public Health float.
The first gay pride celebration in Ottawa was organized in 1986. Today, Capital Pride attracts over 75,000 festival goers annually, and has become a popular family event.
