“This is going to be something you have to strap in for.” “It’s not going to be boring,” said Krystal Marx, Seattle Pride executive director. That said, Seattle Pride has learned a great deal from last year’s virtual pride and the organizers have a lot of new things in store for attendees. Jay Inslee’s recent announcement that the state will lift COVID-19 restrictions and open up 100% by June 30 (just a few days after Pride weekend on June 26-27) came a little too late for Seattle Pride’s organizers, who based their decision to hold Pride virtually on the state of the pandemic back in March. However, Pride will be held online again this summer.

There’d be music and dancing, and the powerful, pervasive scent of SPF 50 sunscreen as the crush of a half-million people being out and proud took over the Capitol Hill neighborhood during the annual Seattle Pride festivities.įor many, the celebration commemorating the 1969 Stonewall Rebellion marks summer in Seattle, and after it went virtual last year due to the pandemic, the community was looking forward to an epic, in-person celebration this year. And at the end of June you’d find them papier-mâchéd on floats and painted on faces at the annual Seattle Pride Parade. In a normal June in Seattle, there’d be rainbows everywhere – chalked on sidewalks, printed on banners and posters.
