Plan your Pride weekend
Pick the parade, festival, march and brunch you want, and we'll put them on one map you can open on your phone and share with your crew. It takes about two minutes and it's free.

Tap "+ Plan" on the events you want
Pick up to 10. The button turns green and a bar at the bottom counts your picks. A classic Pride weekend: Friday's Trans or Dyke March, Saturday's festival, Sunday's parade and a drag brunch after.

Get there
On the day, tap Open in Google Maps for the route, or the Directions button on any single event. Parade days close streets, so transit, biking or walking is usually faster.
Tips for a great Pride weekend
Check the date before you book travel
Until organizers announce, we show the usual date from past years. Book flights and hotels once the event page shows a confirmed date.
Get to the parade early
For big-city parades, arrive an hour or more early for a curbside spot, and look up the route and street closures the week before.
Hydrate and wear sunscreen
June parades and festivals are long, hot and mostly outdoors. Bring water, a hat and comfortable shoes.
Reserve drag brunch early
Pride weekend brunches sell out weeks ahead. Bring small bills to tip the performers.
Know the ages
Daytime events are usually all ages; many evening parties and shows are 18+ or 21+. Listings show "All ages" or "21+" when organizers say.
Look out for each other
Agree on a meeting spot in case phones die, keep an eye on friends, and find the event's info or first-aid booth when you arrive.
Questions
How many events can a plan have?
Up to 10. That's the most Google Maps accepts in a single route link.
Do I need an account?
No. Your plan is saved in your browser, and the plan link itself works for anyone you send it to.
Does it work with Apple Maps?
The full multi-stop route opens in Google Maps, since Apple Maps links only take one destination. Each event page also has a Directions button for a single stop.
Can I share my plan with friends?
Yes. Use Share link or Copy link on the plan page, and they'll see the same events in the same order.
