Boston Pride announces date of 2025 parade and festival, seeks theme ideas – The Boston Globe
The 2025 Boston Pride parade and festival is set for June 14, and the community is invited to help choose this year’s theme, organizers said Monday.
“We’re looking for a theme that embodies the bold spirit of the Stonewall Riots — capturing resilience, defiance, and collective strength in the fight for equality and justice,” Pride for the People said in a statement.
Suggestions are due Feb. 28 by 5 p.m. They can be submitted here.
The celebration arrives amid rising anxiety in the LGBTQ+ community, fueled by President Trump’s recent policies to eliminate DEI initiatives, recognize only two biological genders, and ban transgender athletes from women’s sports.
Last Thursday, references to transgender people were removed from the National Park Service website for the Stonewall National Monument, due to Trump’s order.
“Attacks on transgender people take aim at the heart of LGBTQ+ communities. In the midst of such vitriol, we want [Boston Pride] to be a celebration of Trans joy, an act of resistance in itself,” said Chastity Bowick, a member of the organizing committee said in the statement.
Boston Pride for the People, a nonprofit led by volunteers, has hosted Boston’s annual LGBTQ+ parade and festival since 2023.
The 2025 parade will start in Copley Square and wind through the South End and Back Bay before ending at Boston Common with an all-ages concert and festival. In the afternoon, a 21+ block party will be held at City Hall Plaza.
Last year’s parade, themed “Still Here: In Living Color,” drew more than 10,000 participants, the Globe reported.
Several hundred community groups, businesses, schools, and organizations are expected to register for this year’s festivities. Those interested can sign up here.
“In the face of uncertainty, our city remains unwavering in its commitment to equality and justice for all,” said Mayor Michelle Wu, who will attend the event.
“Pride is not just a celebration—it’s a powerful reminder that our strength lies in unity, and Boston will always be a place where everyone belongs.”

Red Sox at Reds preview: Sonny Gray makes his first start for Boston – The Boston Globe
Gray, acquired in a November trade from the St. Louis Cardinals, was one of Boston’s key rotation additions, along with Ranger Suarez, in the offseason. He was 14-8 with a 4.28 ERA in 2025.
“He’s very specific about his work. Every day has a purpose,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora said of Gray. “Two hundred strikeouts, that’s something that we were looking for. The competitor. Every five days, this guy is going to give you everything.”
In his five career appearances against the Reds, Gray is 1-3 with a 4.18 ERA.
“It’s pretty much one of the only things that is continuing to push me, is to get to a World Series, to win a World Series, to pitch in big games,” said Gray. “I love the moment, and I am chasing that moment.”
Here’s the preview:
RED SOX (1-0): TBA
Pitching: RHP Sonny Gray
REDS (0-1): TBA
Pitching: RHP Brady Singer
Time: 4:10 p.m.
TV, radio: NESN, WEEI-FM 93.7
Red Sox vs. Singer: Wilyer Abreu 2-5, Roman Anthony 1-2, Willson Contreras 2-7, Jarren Duran 3-10, Caleb Durbin 0-1, Isiah Kiner-Falefa 6-16, Marcelo Mayer 0-1, Andruw Monasterio 1-4, Carlos Narváez 1-1, Ceddanne Rafaela 1-5, Trevor Story 0-4, Connor Wong 2-8, Masataka Yoshida 2-7
Reds vs. Gray: Will Benson 0-5, Elly De La Cruz 5-11, TJ Friedl 1-8, Ke’Bryan Hayes 4-17, Nathaniel Lowe 2-10, Noelvi Marte 0-5, Matt McLain 2-2, Spencer Steer 4-9, Tyler Stephenson 0-8, Eugenio Suárez 7-13, Jose Trevino 0-2
Stat of the day: Sal Stewart become the first Cincinnati rookie since 1958 to record three hits on Opening Day.
Notes: Cincinnati sends righthander Brady Singer (14-12, 4.03 in 2025) to the mound … With Hunter Greene and Nick Lodolo already on the injured list to start the season, Singer is considered one of Cincinnati’s most durable pitchers, leading the Reds with 32 starts last season … Singer has made five career starts against Boston, posting a 2-2 record with a 4.88 ERA over 24 innings … His last appearance against the Red Sox, on July 1 in Boston, ended after just three innings when he allowed two earned runs on three hits.
