The 2026 edition took over West Hollywood from June 5 to 7, with the Sunday parade at noon down Santa Monica Boulevard (Crescent Heights to San Vicente), plus the Street Fair and the arts festival. West Hollywood has hosted Pride since 1979 (when it held the LA event) and since 2022 runs its own WeHo Pride, in the heart of LA's gay scene.
Practical tips
for experiencing WeHo Pride
The practical stuff so Pride week works — arrival, accommodation, transport and what to bring.
Arrive Wednesday · leave Monday
The Pride core runs from Thursday to Sunday. Arriving Wednesday gives you a day to acclimate before the rush. Book at least 3 months ahead — the best hotels are gone by April.
Close to the route · 0-10 min walking
Hotels near the route are gold during Pride — you can walk back without fighting for a taxi. Prices rise +30-50% that week.
Plane + public transport
Urban airports usually have a metro or commuter train direct to the center. Taxi/Uber/Cabify run all night. High-speed rail is competitive for distances <3h.
Extended metro · streets closed
Many metro systems run 24h on Pride weekend. The route streets are closed to traffic — taxis don't enter. Walking is usually fastest.
Heat · shade · water · comfy shoes
European summer in the street: cap, sunglasses, SPF 50, reusable water bottle. Closed shoes for the march — stepping on toes is real.
Reinforced health services
Temporary health stations are usually set up in central squares during Pride. STI/PrEP centers often extend hours. EU: EHIC covers emergencies. Other: private insurance recommended.
