Seattle Pride moves 2021 festivities online as pandemic continues by Callie Craighead, SeattlePI
Seattle s colorful LGBTQIA+ Pride parade and in-person celebrations will have to wait until 2022.
The organizers of Seattle Pride made an early call to move the annual parade and festivities online for 2021 amid the continued presence of COVID-19 and risks of large gatherings. With the pandemic still spreading at a rapid pace, we could not in good conscience move forward with plans for our June events which bring thousands of people together in close proximity, said Seattle Pride Executive Director Krystal Marx in a statement. Our efforts now shift to building on the success of last year’s virtual Pride, so we can continue to bring our community together to celebrate diversity.
