Vancouver Pride Parade 2022

 We are excited to invite you to join Unifor LGBTQ members and allies at this years Vancouver Pride Parade Sunday, July 31st.


As with previous years, Unifor will have a truck and trailer with a float on it. The parade route will be 3 km's long so those marchers not able to walk this distance can sit on the trailer while others can march alongside. For safety reasons the decision to ride on the trailer will need to be made at the start of the parade as you will not be able to jump on and off once the parade starts moving.

Unifor's staging location will be ES-6, section E is on Alberni Street just west of Burrard Street. Marchers should arrive at the staging area by noon (no earlier than 11:30 a.m. and no later than 12:15 p.m.) For reference see the attached map of the staging area.
