Pride Parade Details and Parking

Join Greater Palm Springs on November 3rd at 10:00 AM for the biggest event of all, the Gay Pride Parade! Expect vibrant themed floats, representations of LGBTQ heroes, and an abundance of fabulousness. The parade starts at the Uptown Design District and makes its way to the pride festival at Amado.

There is plenty of parking in the downtown area, but plan extra time as regular spots become scarce during the parade. Consider parking away from Palm Canyon Dr. at locations like the new Downtown Parking Garage, E Amado Rd., E Andreas Rd., Tamarisk to Ruth Hardy Park, and Tachevah to Katherine Finchey Elementary School.

Special Events and Community Activities and Gatherings

Come join the gay community in celebrating all the activists who have helped support the movement by honoring them at the Pride Honor Awards!  Here you will find all of those who should be recognized for bringing awareness and advocating for the LGBTQ community! 

Each year, Pride is celebrated with a vivacious drag pageant and plenty of big name artists! Past performers have included stars like Lisa Lisa, Kylie Sonique Love, and Idina Menzel. While this year’s lineup is yet to be announced, we guarantee it will be nothing short of fabulous! Don’t miss out on live DJ sets at our nightly block parties, that are sure to make Pride an unforgettable week. Stay tuned for more on our events page!
