Join us in opening Pride month by strutting your stuff with our LGBTQ+ community, allies, and doggos down Queen Street East towards Black Lab Brewery, where we'll continue celebrating love, diversity, and inclusivity.

Gather with us before the march at Jimmie Simpson Park to get ready for the festivities.

We can't wait to show off our pride with you, a member of our friendly community of dog-loving folk. Bring your fam, bring your friends, bring your pups -- you're all welcome!

Schedule at a glance

11 - 1 pm: Get ready with us for the march at Jimmie Simpson Park (south side by the tennis and basketball courts) to gather for the march. Think stickers, temporary tattoos, colour, glitter, dog treats.

1 pm: We parade down Queen Street East, flashing our rainbow bandanas and pride-inspired ‘fits (if you feel so inclined!), making noise, and getting the neighbourhood pumped, all led by our Pride banner!

1:30 pm: We mingle and boogie at Black Lab, where we'll be met with treats, drinks (alc and non-alc), activities, and a drag performance!
