The Wellington Pride Parade, organised by the Wellington Pride Parade Trust, is an annual celebration that highlights our city’s rich culture and diversity. As Aotearoa’s queerest city, Wellington takes pride in showcasing its vibrant communities.

Courtenay Place and Dixon Street are steeped in queer history, serving as vital spaces for work, protest, and celebration. The Parade concludes at the iconic Cuba Street Rainbow Crossing.
