2023 March & Festival

2023 March & Festival FAQ

How do I purchase a ticket? 
There is no need to purchase a ticket. The March and Festival are free and open to the public. 

I want to be a sponsor or purchase a table. How do I do that? 
Please visit the dropdown menu for this page and visit our 2023 Tabling page. 

How long is the march route? 
The 2023 march route is currently TBA. It will be approximately 1 mile in length–shorter than years past. 

Where can I park? 
Parking at Franklin Park is extremely limited, and exiting will be difficult once performers and vendors have arrived. We recommend ride-sharing, carpooling, or taking the T to Forest Hills (closest to Franklin Park) and walking the rest of the way if you are able.

Will there be any food? 
Yes! We are delighted to have a number of food trucks who will be featured at the event. Local food vendors TBA.

What accessibility accommodations will be in place? 
We will have sensory areas and 'chill-out' zones at the festival, as well as ASL interpreters for our performances. We will also have accessible restrooms. The march will be supported by mobility assistance, including access to golf carts. Volunteers will be clearly identifiable based on the color of their shirts. 

When does the festival end?
5 pm. 

Where can I find the lineup and schedule of performers?
The lineup has not yet been announced–watch this page for updates! 

How will you make sure everyone is safe?
We expect a fun, safe event. We have a team of trained marshals in place to protect participants during the march and throughout the festival. We also ask our attendees to practice community care, and to be courteous and considerate of others. 

Will there be a livestream? 
Yes. We will livestream as much of the event as we can on Instagram Live, internet connection depending.
