NYC's PRIDE 2025

 


New York City’s Pride events draws a colorful, overflowing crowd to celebrate the LGBTQ community each year. However in 2025, the press reported a noticeable drop in visible corporate sponsorships adorning the parade route.

Nevertheless, the crowds congregating in Washington Square Park were huge, and -to me- appeared larger than those in 2024. The media reported that more than 1 million people took part in the events.

The parade itself celebrated its 55th anniversary this year. The official theme, “Rise Up: Pride and Protest,” was selected to honor the legacy of the first Pride march in 1970, the year after the Stonewall Inn riots.
