Unity. Diversity. Strength. These are the ideals that this year’s Silicon Valley Pride parade and festival aims to highlight in the local LGBTQ+ community. Celebrating its 43rd anniversary, the weekend begins with a Trans and Friends Rally—focused on those who identify as transgender and gender non-binary. Later, the nighttime festival will feature four fantasy-themed realms: Under the Sea, Enchanted Forest, Good vs. Evil and Space Odyssey. On Sunday, there will be a parade moving from Market Street to Julian Street and ending with a lively celebration featuring dancing, local artists and live bands.
