2024 Halifax Pride Parade Application Form
Halifax Pride began as a protest march by folks of diverse sexual and gender identities against the discrimination they faced. This march has grown into the parade and festival we know today. While the parade is an opportunity to celebrate the advancement of rights and liberties, it remains a call to fight the injustice and inequalities that persist for many.

Over time, inclusive groups and businesses began marching to show their support but this participation has, at times, overshadowed the voices of those impacted by ongoing discrimination. In response to these concerns of over commercialization, Halifax Pride strives to host a parade that honours our history and highlights the experiences, stories, and activism of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. Halifax Pride calls on those who take part in the parade to be mindful of our roots and the reasons why we gather.

We ask parade participants to remember that the Pride Parade is not an opportunity to market their brand or product, but rather an opportunity to show support and solidarity. While we recognize that many organizations wish to achieve both through their participation, we encourage all entries to think critically about their motivation to be involved in this event, and to treat it as more than “just a marketing opportunity”.

In agreeing to take part in the Halifax Pride Parade, all participants affirm their support for Halifax Pride’s Aim and Purpose listed here:

Aim:  An equitable society free from all forms of oppression.
Purpose: To create spaces for persons of diverse sexual and gender identities to come together and flourish.
