The Victoria Pride Society’s mission is based on empowerment. We empower those who are – or think they might be – gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, two-spirited, intersex, friends and allies. Victoria Pride fosters learning and empowerment through social celebration and networking. We strive to create a better public understanding of our community’s history, courage, diversity and future.
Victoria Pride 2014
history booth at pride
We’re excited to announce that we’ll be including a history booth at the festival that will provide historical facts and information about the LGBTQ community within Victoria. Our practicum student, Nicole, is looking for queer elders in the community to interview to enrich the quality and depth of this project.
boat cruise
The annual Sunset Harbour Boat Cruise is one of our most popular events. This year, we have a larger boat, and tickets will be available online starting June 1, at 1pm. A very limited number of tickets will be available at Paparazzi Show/Nightclub on June 1.

The Victoria Pride Society was born from a casual picnic in Beacon Hill Park over 20 years ago. Since the time of its creation, the Victoria Pride Society has focused on supporting the inclusiveness, accessibility, and diversity of Pride Week events. Today, we are one of a few national Pride Societies who encourage all people to walk the Pride parade route – generating thousands of people ‘proudly’ walking the streets of Victoria for themselves, colleagues, or loved ones.
As our community, sponsors, and supporters grow, so too does the opportunity to share who we are, where we come from, and most importantly, our personal pride. Being ‘proud’ transcends any one week of any given year. Being ‘proud’ is an achievement garnered throughout a lifetime. The Victoria Pride Society is here to provide support, connection, education, and celebration for every individual in their own quest to be proud.
