Our parade gets bigger and more fabulous every year but we still want every group to convey some message that addresses the realities of LGBTQ people. There are an infinite number of possible messages so participants’ creativity is key. To ensure your group is the best it can be it is recommended to start preparing early. A good show does not have to cost much, what is most important is imagination and getting help from friends and family.

Groups that wish to participate in the parade must apply to Reykjavik Pride before the 1st of August. For further information about the parade, please contact the parade managers Eva, Steina, Lilja, Anna and Þórhallur.

The parade staging area is at Sæbraut, near Harpa Concert Hall, from 12 a.m. The parade starts at 2 p.m. sharp and goes from the intersection of Sæbraut and Faxastígur, through Kalkofnsvegur, Lækjargata, and Fríkirkjuvegur. The parade concludes at Sóleyjargata near Hljómskálagarður Park, where an outdoor concert will then take place.
