D.C.'s Pride celebrates queer history as it prepares to host World Pride 2025
Briefly

Next year is our 50th anniversary of celebrating pride annually here in Washington. We chose "Totally Radical" because it connected to an 80s and early 90s vibe. It also represents and acknowledges that, you know, specifically with the HIV and AIDS epidemic in the 80s, we needed to be totally radical to be seen and to be heard to be valued.
Our infamous best parade of DC, the Capitol Pride Parade, with a new route to prepare for next year's World Pride. Folks will enjoy an amazing concert and festival, including headliners with Ava Max, Billy Porter, Keke Palmer, Exposé, and Sapphira Cristál.
Ever since getting the honor from InterPride to host World Pride in '25, which will coincide with the 50th anniversary of pride here in the nation's capital, our community has been galvanized, excited, and eager to welcome the international community as well as many folks nationally who haven't been to D.C.
