The 2025 New York City Pride March celebrates its theme 'Rise Up: Pride and Protest', reflecting on the Stonewall Riots of 1969. This year's events honor LGBTQ+ history while promoting inclusivity and activism, emphasizing that everyone can express their true selves. NYC Pride co-chair Kazz Alexander highlights the importance of this historic moment in the current political climate. Through the march, organizers aim to showcase New York as a welcoming city for all, encouraging authentic self-expression amidst the vibrant festivities that paint the town in rainbow colors.
This year's theme honors the legacy of the 1969 Stonewall Riots and the inaugural Pride March that was held the following year.
This is an opportunity for us to say what we want to say. 'Pride and Protest' is a callback, or a recall, to the heritage of the Pride Movement.
This weekend, we see the town sort of painted in rainbow... but this is an opportunity to show... what inclusion looks like.
