Show Up. Be Seen. From Athens, With Pride.

Put your brand in front of thousands as you walk in one of Georgia’s fastest-growing Pride parades. The Athens Pride Parade is a high-energy, high-visibility opportunity to connect with the community and show your support for LGBTQ+ inclusion.

📍 Downtown Athens (Parade Route through Downtown)
🗓 Saturday, June 6
🏳️‍🌈 Float: $50 ($25 Non-Profit) | Walking: $25 ($1 Non-Profit)

Parade participation can be combined with a Vendor Booth or Annual Sponsorship for even greater impact. Many organizations use the parade to build awareness and drive traffic—handing out swag, candy, or promotional materials that encourage attendees to visit their booth or engage further during PrideFest.

Parade space is limited and fills quickly. Whether you’re building brand awareness, showing community support, or simply celebrating, the parade is a powerful way to show up, stand out, and be seen.
