Pride Walk

Pride Walk is a family friendly event for all to come together and support the Whanganui LGBTTQIA+ community. This walk signifies a few things. We walk as a mark of respect for those who are no longer with us, we walk to support those who can't walk with us, and we walk as a quite literal step forward for the community and its presence in Whanganui.

Meeting at the Silver Ball down by the River Traders Market, at 11.00am on Saturday the 11th of March 2023, we will head off at 11.15am for a lap around the bridges. We will be doing the traditional clockwise route from the Markets, heading along the shared pathway towards Dublin Street Bridge, right turn across the Dublin Street Bridge to Kowhai Park. Through Kowhai Park back up onto the riverside path heading towards the Riverside 4 Square/The Durie Hill Elevator Entrance, across the City Bridge and back to the markets.

Participants are encouraged to wear big, bright, bold clothing. Let's be seen and let's be heard. Koha/Gold coin donation for the event appreciated.
