The Indy Pride Parade is a vibrant, public celebration of LGBTQ+ visibility, resilience, and joy—one that has grown alongside the community it serves. What began as a courageous act of gathering has become a beloved tradition, drawing tens of thousands of spectators each year to line the streets of downtown Indianapolis. Filled with color, music, and movement, the parade honors the history that made Pride possible while celebrating the people and stories that continue to shape our community today. It is a moment of shared pride, connection, and affirmation—where being seen is both a celebration and a promise of belonging.
