Grand Marshal Reception
Join us for our 2025 Grand Marshal Reception as we come together to honor our Grand Marshal and community award recipients for all of their contributions to the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
Ticket sales and silent auction proceeds help us sustain our year-round programming.
We are proud to announce that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz will serve as the 2025 Twin Cities Pride Grand Marshal.
A lifelong advocate for equality, Governor Walz has demonstrated unwavering support for the LGBTQ+ community throughout his career—from his days as a high school teacher helping launch one of Minnesota’s first Gay-Straight Alliances, to his groundbreaking leadership as governor, signing laws protecting gender-affirming care and banning conversion therapy as governor.
Governor Walz embodies the belief that everyone deserves to live with dignity, safety, and pride. Please join us in honoring Governor Tim Walz—an educator, a leader, an advocate, and a true ally.
