Friday, Oct. 7 and Saturday, Oct. 8 will be full of color and fun as Las Vegas celebrates National LGBTQ+ History Month with a PRIDE parade and festival this weekend.
Las Vegas PRIDE Night Parade (Friday, Oct. 7)
Who doesn’t love a parade? The Las Vegas PRIDE Night Parade returns to downtown Las Vegas, kicking off with a pre-show at 6 p.m. at the main stage located at 4th Street and Bridger Ave. The parade begins at 7 p.m. at Gass Ave. and heads north along 4th Street to Ogden Ave. Moving around downtown may be a challenge especially with more than 30,000 spectators expected to join the party. So, forget parking hassles and let the RTC be your ride via routes 113 – Las Vegas Blvd., 207 – Alta/Stewart, 215 – Bonanza, BHX, or Deuce on the Strip.
