Montréal Pride Festival (Fierté Montréal) 2025 Event Details

Be a part of Montréal Pride Festival (Fierté Montréal) with over 2 million other Pride enthusiasts to show off the LGBTQ+ community’s love, hope, and diversity—and of course, our commitment to having any amazing time. In all seriousness though, this is the chance to promote, loudly and proudly, self-affirmation, dignity, equality rights, and visibility where and when it counts.

Montréal Pride Festival - July 31 - August 9

Montreal’s Pride Festival hosts 10+ days and nights of parties, cultural events, circuit parties, brunches, socials, and pool soirees galore. Pride closes with a massive parade through the city streets on the final Sunday of the celebrations.

Montréal Pride Parade - Sunday, August 9

The festivities kick off at 1 pm at the corner of St. Mathieu and René-Lévesque, where the parade begins its glitter-filled journey eastward down René-Lévesque, strutting its way to Sanguinet like a runway on the move. The magic lasts two to three hours—plenty of time to cheer, dance, and snap selfies with the most fabulous folks in town.

But don’t stop there! The real crescendo hits at the corner of Berri and Ste. Catherine in Place Émilie-Gamelin, where the MEGA T-DANCE takes over with beats, moves, and good vibes under the open sky.

Bottom Line

Doesn't matter if you're gay or lesbian, trans or bi, queer or questioning, friend or loved one or ally, come out and celebrate! You and yours should come just as you are and celebrate over a decade of Pride in Montreal. After all, diversity in gender, sexuality and celebratory spirits is what makes PRIDE so incredible year after year. Can't wait to see you in "The City of Saints."
