International Transgender Day of Visibility is a moment to recognize and uplift trans and gender expansive people in our community.

Visibility matters, and it has to be matched with care, safety, and real support 🏳️‍⚧️

That’s the intention behind LA Pride’s Trans Self-Care Sunday. Creating space for people to feel seen, supported, and connected to affirming resources and community.

The response this year, alongside our community partners, made it clear just how needed these spaces truly are 🫶

This year’s theme, “Rise with Pride,” is both a celebration and a call forward. It reflects the resilience of a community that continues to rise through change, through challenge, and through collective growth.

As LA Pride enters its 56th year, the organization continues evolving from a single June celebration into a year-round institution rooted in service, access, and advocacy.

LA Pride 2026 Parade and Village will take place in Hollywood on Sunday, June 14.
