Pride Chicago, the Midwest’s largest parade, will begin at North Halsted and West Grace Streets, heading down Halsted to Belmont. It will move west on Belmont to Broadway, then south on Broadway to Diversey. The parade is expected to last about three hours, and the route is about two miles long.

With LGBTQ+ rights under threat across the nation, this year's parade was a welcome relief and a chance to celebrate loudly, proudly and in unity.

Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s effort to ban Pride backfired, drawing a huge throng in support of LGBTQ+ rights and hurting him and his party ahead of elections next year.
