2017 San Diego Pride Parade

On Saturday, July 15, Team Sycuan came together with the San Diego Gay Men’s Chorus to walk in the 2017 San Diego Pride Parade. Sycuan team members were decked out head-to-toe in bright colors and a few rocked massive balloon unicorn costumes all in support of SD Pride.

The annual San Diego Pride Parade is among the largest in the United States, attracting over 100,000 cheering spectators and significant media participation.

About San Diego Pride

Formed in 1974 as a sponsored program of The Center for Social Services, San Diego Pride produced the first Lesbian and Gay Parade in San Diego to celebrate the 1969 Stonewall Rebellion on New York’s Christopher Street. San Diego Pride incorporated as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in 1994, and today it continues to bring together the skills, talents and vision of our diverse community through numerous programs.

San Diego Pride raises funds primarily through Music Festival ticket and beverage sales, sponsorships and exhibitor fees. This supports San Diego Pride’s community philanthropy which has distributed more than $2 million in advancement of its mission to foster pride in and respect for all LGBT people locally, nationally, and globally.
