Parade Registration

In order to do our part in reducing the carbon footprint of the festival weekend, we are strongly encouraging Parade contingents, sponsors, partners, and community members to consider marching in the annual Parade over the use of registering vehicles and floats. This eco-friendly approach is not only better for our environment but also allows us to celebrate the origins of Pride Toronto which started as a protest ON FOOT. Costumes, themed collectives, and creativity are highly encouraged.

Should registering a vehicle or float still be preferred, we are introducing new requirements and regulations that must be abided by in order to participate in the Parade. Vehicles must either be:

• A. A certified e-powered vehicle.
• B. A vehicle with a diesel engine that will exclusively use biodiesel/biofuel for the duration of the Parade (this includes arrival and departure).
• 
  

If a vehicle is pulling a float, then the total length of the vehicle and the float combined must not exceed 40 feet.

Proof of compliance with the new regulations must be provided to Pride Toronto no later than June 11th, 2025.

If you are interested in participating in the Pride Parade 2025, please review the Terms and Conditions.
