Today, the Board of Directors of San Francisco Pride announced the Community Grand Marshals to be honored during the 52nd annual San Francisco Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Pride Celebration and Parade (Pride 52), taking place on Saturday and Sunday, June 25-26, 2022. This year’s honorees personify SF Pride’s mission to educate the world, commemorate heritage, celebrate culture, and liberate LGBTQ+ people.
“As we return to an in-person celebration this June, SF Pride is thrilled to honor this exceptional group of individuals and organizations who have contributed greatly to the San Francisco Bay Area LGBTQ+ community and to society at large,” says Suzanne Ford, San Francisco Pride Interim Executive Director. “Each of this year’s Grand Marshals are local heroes in their own right and leaders in the efforts towards inclusion, acceptance, and equality for all LGBTQ+ people.”
With the theme of “Love Will Keep Us Together,” this year’s festivities will include a two-day Celebration and Rally scheduled from noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday, June 25, and from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday, June 26 at Civic Center Plaza and the surrounding neighborhood. The legendary Parade will take place Sunday, June 26 beginning at 10:30 a.m. at Beale and Market Street, continuing through the heart of downtown San Francisco. Additional SF Pride events will take place throughout the month of June and the remainder of 2022. Information regarding Parade registration, as well as sponsor, exhibitor, advertising, membership, and donor opportunities, may be found at sfpride.org.
