HRC reacts to Pride flag removal at Stonewall

Brandon Wolf, national press secretary with the Human Rights Campaign, reacts after the Pride flag was removed from the Stonewall National Monument as the National Park Service followed "recent guidance" on flag-related policies from the Trump administration.

NYC Pride 2026 is here. 

Thousands of people will march down 5th avenue on Sunday to celebrate Pride and honor the 1969 Stonewall Riots, before partying at PrideFest.

This year's theme is "For All Of Us," a reference to a quote attributed to Marsha P. Johnson: "There is no pride for some of us without liberation for all of us."

"As our trans and non-binary siblings face a growing wave of hateful attacks at every level of government, this year’s theme recalls the queer trail-blazers who came before us – and centers the ongoing fight on the most marginalized among us," march organizers wrote on their website.

Here's everything you need to know about Sunday's events.

March route

The march kicks off at 12 p.m., starting from 26th Street and 5th Ave. From there, it will continue down 5th Ave., then wrap around to come back up 7th Ave., ending at 7th Ave. and 15th Street.
