Fierté Montréal Pride

Founded in 2007 as an initiative of Montréal’s LGBT communities, Montréal Pride is now the largest LGBT gathering in the Francophone world. The organization’s primary mission is to support and promote local LGBT communities while serving as a beacon of hope for LGBT communities around the world who continue to battle injustice. Each year, Montréal Pride attracts more than 400,000 local and international visitors during a week of cultural and community activities, including the Pride Parade and Community Day. In 2015, the Montréal Pride festival will be held from August 10 to 16.
