Portland Pride Parade

The parade kicks off at Monument Square, heads west on Congress Street, then goes down High Street and ends at the Pride Portland festival at Deering Oaks Park. Show up early for a good spot and then get ready to cheer on a sea of happy and proud Mainers. The parade features the 900-feet long River of Pride flag, which you can duck underneath and help carry. The festival includes more than 100 vendors, 20 food trucks and three entertainment areas.
