Miami Beach Pride Parade
Sunday, April 16, 2023
When you truly believe that God is the one power and one presence and that each of us has this spark of Divinity alive within us…there is nothing left to do but celebrate and honor each person as an expression of the Divine. This year we continue to celebrate the individuals that identify as LGBTQ+ by sponsoring the Miami Beach Pride Parade, having our own float in the parade, and a tent for the community to learn more about us.
We have a long history of providing a safe space for all, regardless of race, gender identity, or sexual orientation. Because we are an inclusive spiritual community, our theme for this year is “Unapologetically Inclusive”. So come join us so together we can show our PRIDE for being a welcoming, loving and inclusive spiritual community by volunteering in different ways (click here to learn more).

“Marcher” Volunteer
April 16 - arrive by 11am
Want to march with us in the parade? Sign-ups are open & everyone is welcomed! Keeping up with the theme of "Unapologetically Inclusive", we want to see you dressed to impress, the bolder the better - no need for an apology! Come one and come all in your most unique form of self-expression. We want you to make a statement that screams YOU - Let your true colors shine! Show 'em what you got -- with all originality, no copycats allowed. And keep it classy folks; let's impress Grandma while we're at it. We want the boldest drag queens and most outrageous personalities to step up their game - y'all are gonna make this a show that'll leave everyone talking! You would meet us around South 5th and Ocean Drive in Miami Beach at 11am. The parade will start at noon and complete at 2pm. We are walking 11 blocks north on Ocean Drive to 15th street. Space on the float is limited and priority is given to marchers who are not able to walk long distances & wish to participate. We will give you some goodies to hand out to the crowd while marching & you may be asked to hold a banner or a flag.
