About Christchurch Pride:
Christchurch Pride, like Ōtautahi itself, is growing stronger and stronger. We’re excited to invite you, your friends and whanau to join us in celebrating who we are, our diversity and our city.

Our key aims are:

  • Make this a family celebration;
  • To make it inclusive for all;
  • To celebrate with pride and visibility;
  • And to bring together the diverse groups within the LGBTQIA+ community.

Thank you for celebrating Pride 2024 with us! We’re now busy planning the 2025 festival. Here are some key dates to add to your calendar:

Saturday 1st March: Pride Opening  
Saturday 8th March: Pride Boat Party
Wednesday 12th March: Bingo  
Saturday 22nd March: Storytime  
Saturday 29th March: Pride Closing party  
Sunday 30th March: Pride Picnic 
We’re also hoping to bring back some favourites from 2024, like the Rainbow Ride,  markets, Library events, educational sessions, events focussed on gender affirming care, movies, shows, and much more!
