Join Metro for a FABULOUS Pride Parade!

Parade spectators wave rainbow flags as the Metro Pride bus travels down the parade route.

The Seattle Pride Parade is back Sunday, June 30, and large crowds are expected to attend to honor our LGBTQIA+ community for their 50th year of gathering publicly here as an act of both celebration and collective resistance. We’re encouraging everyone to plan ahead if they are traveling to or around downtown Seattle.

Expect congestion and bus reroutes downtown

The parade starts at 11 a.m. on Fourth Avenue at Pike Street and travels north to Second Avenue and Denny Way. From about 7 a.m. until about 5 p.m., Fourth Avenue in downtown Seattle will be affected by street closures and traffic congestion associated with the parade. Transit service will be rerouted off Fourth Avenue. King County Metro bus routes 4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 24, 28, 33, 36, 40, 43 and Sound Transit bus routes ST 545 and ST 554 will be affected by this event. For information about these reroutes, visit our Service Advisories page for updated information.

Riding transit to the parade?

Please allow extra travel time. Sound Transit’s Link 1 Line is a great option to bypass traffic congestion and travel to – and under – downtown Seattle. Pop up to watch the parade. Due to expected crowds, consider packing a water bottle and patience for your trip to the parade.

  1. Why are there bus routes 26X and 47 I thought it was a bus route restored or I think they accidentally added restore routes but the 26X was still eliminated in 2021 and the 47 is still suspended in COVID-19 it no longer a bus route
