 While the Trans and Friends Rally is open to everyone, it is uniquely

 grounds open once again after the parade ends to the excitement of dance 
 performers, talented local artists and the music of live bands. Main Stage 
 and Hey Girl Stage entertainment will be announced in August. \n\nPlease 
 check our website http://www.svpride.com for our entertainment 
 announcements. \n\nSilicon Valley Pride is now accepting 2019 parade 
 registrations: https://www.svpride.com/register \n\nHonoring Our Past + 
 Securing Our Future \n\nSilicon Valley Pride is a celebration of the LGBTQ+ 
 community and our allies. It all started back in 1975 as a gay rights rally 
 and evolved into San Jose Pride Festival in 1976. \nThe following year, 
 1977 San Jose added its first parade to the celebration. In 2014 San Jose 
 Pride was changed to Silicon Valley pride to include neighboring cities to 
 encourage unity. \n\nIt is now the largest Pride celebration of the South 
 Bay and is a family friendly event. That is \n44 years of honoring and 
 celebrating our rights to choose whom we love and spend our lives with! The 
 LGBTQ+ movement has been built on the backs of people who have fought hard 
 for equality and progression. \n\nWe choose to honor those individuals and 
 those whom we’ve lost. It is important, now more than ever, to make our 
 voices heard and to celebrate our diversity! We will not be pushed aside 
 and we will not be erased \n\nFacebook:
