Auckland Pride Parade 2016

The Pride Parade is the highlight of the Auckland Pride Festival and a spectacular showcase for the Rainbow Community. The 2016 Pride Parade promises to be bigger, brighter and most of all more FUN for everyone involved and we are working to expand on it’s success with increased participation, attendance and impact in 2016 and beyond. The parade will be held on Ponsonby Road starting at the new time of 6:00pm on Saturday 20th February 2016 and will again be the pivotal event of the Auckland Pride Festival. The Parade is changing direction this year as well with the start and ribbon-cutting ceremony being held at the northern Tole Street end of Ponsonby Road and heading south towards Karangahape Road and The Fairytale Ending, which is the VIP zone set up with entertainment, a private bar, grandstand views, and catering packages are available.
