The last weekend of June means one thing in San Francisco: San Francisco Pride. SF Pride is one of the largest and most historical gatherings of members of the LGBTQ+ community and allies, featuring a two-day celebration and community-led parade. Bay FC is excited to be a part of the festivities at both the SF Pride Celebration on Saturday, June 27 and Sunday, June 28 and the SF Pride Parade on Sunday, June 28. Below you can see where to find Bay FC and how to gear up with our Pride Collection while you’re there.
Where to Find Bay FC at SF Pride
Look for our Bay FC Street Team and VANessa on these dates:
Sat, June 27 & Sun, June 28 · 12:00 P.M. – 6:00 P.M.
Civic Center Plaza, San Francisco, CA
SF Pride Celebration
- Background: This two-day celebration features multiple stages with live entertainment, food and merchandise vendors, community spaces and activities and a family garden for all ages.
- Entry: Entry gates are located at Market and Grove Streets.
- Admission & Donation: The celebration is free and open to all. SF Pride suggests a donation of $5 – $10 at the gates to support their community partners and festival production.
Sun, June 28 · 10:30 A.M.
Market Street (between Beale & 8th), San Francisco, CA
SF Pride Parade
- Background: Spanning from Beale to 8th along Market, the parade features over 200 diverse parade contingents, colorful floats and performers and community organizations and allies, all celebrating equality and justice.
- Arrive early: SF Pride recommends arriving 1 – 2 hours before the 10:30 a.m. start time to get a good viewing spot.
- Take public transit: Market Street will be fully closed to vehicle traffic so BART and Muni stops (between Embarcadero and Civic Center) are your best options.
Stock up on Pride Merch
Bay FC will be selling merch from both this year’s Pride Collection as well as select pieces from last year’s collection. Designed by Bay FC’s creative team, the collection invites fans to show up and represent all month long. Featuring colors from across the LGBTQ+ flag, each piece reflects the club’s commitment to inclusion and community. The hoodies and tees feature a soccer pitch surrounded by multicolored dots — representing the diverse Bay Area fans who show up every match. This year also introduces Bay FC’s first Pride scarf, blending the spirit of Pride with a timeless soccer tradition. Preview the full collection here.
