MNU taking part in 2023 Pride Winnipeg Parade

MNU taking part in 2023 Pride Winnipeg Parade

Pride Winnipeg will be celebrated this year during the week of May 26 to June 4, and MNU will once again be walking in the parade on Sunday, June 4.

This is our first parade since before the pandemic, so we are aiming for a strong showing of MNU members, friends and family!

We are asking Local/Worksite Presidents to please help us get the word out, so that as many members as possible can join us for the parade.

Here are the details:

We are asking members to please be at the assembly location of Memorial Park for 10 a.m. Marshals for our MNU walking group will be there with bright flags, so we should be easy to spot, but just in case, the MNU parade entry number is 74 and we will be located in aisle E.

There will be a rally at the Manitoba Legislature at 10 a.m. and then the parade will get underway at 11 a.m. starting at Memorial Park, right across the street from the Legislature.

The route begins at Memorial and York, then heads north on Memorial to Portage Avenue, turns east until Main Street, then continues on William Stephenson Way and ends at The Forks.

We have created a Facebook page that you can share to your Local/Worksite pages, here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/events/1649974038797775?active_tab=about
