Pride St. Louis

Join us as we kick off the 46th Annual PrideFest with a powerful moment of reflection, resilience, and unity. “Rally for Our Right: The Pride March” is a tribute to the origins of Pride as a protest and a rallying call to continue the fight for equality, justice, and our rights. We rally for Trans rights, equal rights, reproductive rights, and healthcare rights: basic human rights

Pride in St. Louis began as a protest march where LGBTQIA+ activists took to the streets to demand visibility, rights, and dignity. Today, we honor that legacy by marching down Market Street toward City Hall.

This is more than a symbolic walk. It is a declaration that we are still here, still proud, and still fighting. At a time when the LGBTQIA+ community continues to face attacks and erasure, we march to show our strength, celebrate our progress, and honor those who paved the way.

Meet us at Kiener Plaza at 9:30 AM on Saturday, June 27, as we come together in solidarity. March starts at 9:45am. Rally starts at 10:15am at City Hall

All are welcome. Stand tall. Be seen. March with Pride.

Our annual Civil Courts Building lighting display returns June 25 through June 28, shining brightly over downtown St. Louis as we celebrate PrideFest 2026.

This year, the building will be illuminated in the colors of the transgender flag as a symbol of hope, visibility, and support for our transgender community. It is a tribute to the resilience, contributions, and spirit of transgender people across our region and beyond.

We are proud to stand with our transgender neighbors, friends, family members, and loved ones, and to recognize the vital role they play in our community.

And a special thank you to Representative Wesley Bell and the St. Louis Circuit Court for helping make this display possible.

Educate. Advocate. Celebrate.
