We acknowledge that Pride Run & Walk takes place on the traditional and ancestral unceded homelands of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples.

Pride Run & Wakl 2023 may now be over but you can still make an individual difference beyond our event.

Thanks to you and our supporters, we will be able to put on a great event, and we want to offer an opportunity for you and your family and friends cheering you on to give back to our community through a donation to Out in Schools or Rainbow Refugee.

Out in Schools is a made in BC organization bringing queer films and facilitated conversations to young people throughout the province. You can donate at registration or after the fact, donate in your own name, or donate to another participant or team. Learn more about the important work they're doing at https://outonscreen.com/out-in-schools/.

Founded in 2000, Rainbow Refugee promotes safe, equitable migration and communities of belonging for people fleeing persecution based on their sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or HIV status. You can donate at registration or after the fact, donate in your own name, or donate to another participant or team. Learn more about their work and mission at https://www.rainbowrefugee.com/.

You are invited to the 2023 19th Annual Vancouver Pride Run & Walk on Sunday, July 23, at 9:00 am!

Hosted by Vancouver Frontrunners, we're celebrating our 40th year of providing a welcoming and inclusive space for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, their friends, families and allies to run and walk. Everyone is welcome!

WOW, we hit 500 so quickly, so we brought MORE T-Shirts in! Don't delay—this year's race is capped at 700 Pride Runners and Walkers.

All 700 registered participants get a free 2023 Pride Run & Walk Brooks technical T-shirt (size availability is first-come, first serve) to show off around town! Register today!

New Courses! We have two new, beautiful seaside 5 and 10K courses for you, including, for the first time ever, a fast, flat BC Athletics-sanctioned and certified 10K course looping around Stanley Park, while our new 5K course provides a scenic route 100% along the seawall for runners & walkers.

On race day, we'll all head to the Pride Run & Walk startline & celebration area you can't miss in Ceperley Park in Stanley Park (adjacent to 2nd Beach).

Our community partners Vancouver Pride Society, Health Initiative for Men (HIM), Rainbow Refugee and Out In Schools will be there, as will our race partner Forerunners on Main / Brooks, Innovative Fitness and many other sponsors and contributors. We gratefully acknowledge the support of the City of Vancouver via their Sport Hosting Grant program.

Despite markedly higher costs than our last pre-pandemic race in 2019, we've kept prices low even as we now include a technical race T-shirt! Please spread the word to other runners and walkers who would enjoy supporting you and Pride Run & Walk on a beautiful summer day in Stanley Park. All are welcome!

Team registration: See if your friends or colleagues have already created a team here; if not, create one when you register, and you'll become the Team Captain! We'll have some fun prizes for the largest, fastest, and best-dressed teams!

Can't run but want to volunteer? Join our volunteer team to help us host the biggest and brightest Pride Run & Walk ever!

New for you in 2023, we're proud to offer a BC Athletics-sanctioned event and 10K certified race course, a scenic, flat, fast run around the Stanley Park Seawall, courtesy of our partnership with the Vancouver Falcons Athletic Club and their Summerfast 10K race. We also have a new and equally scenic 5K course for runners and walkers strutting their stuff in style towards English Bay beach!

In 2023 Pride Run & Walk is coming back strong from the pandemic years when we could not gather together. We are a 100% volunteer-run organization. Every dollar Pride Run & Walk raises goes towards this year's experience and building capacity for the coming years. We're completely overwhelmed by the strong support from the community - already, people like you have made this a record year for Pride Run & Walk. Thank you, and wait to see what we do in 2024 for the 20th anniversary of Pride Run & Walk!
