About the application

2023 March/Parade Application
Sunday, June 11, 2023, 12:00 noon
 
By joining together for the 2023 Motor City Pride Festival and Parade, we stand stronger than ever with our solidarity as one community, striving to bring equality and inclusion to all across the country.
 
This application only covers the company/organization completing this form.  Additional groups, elected officials, or candidates must submit their own application.
 
The mission of Motor City Pride is:
Through the festival, march/parade and other community events, Motor City Pride works toward our vision of a society characterized by a strong commitment to universal human rights as well as safe communities, workplaces, and schools.
Motor City Pride takes our mission seriously. Thus, we only seek involvement from those participants who affirm and support our message: the Parade celebration commemorates and continues the fight against discrimination and the struggle for equality for LGBTQ+ persons and their families.
 
Because we create a safe and welcoming environment for all individuals, we ask all participants to acknowledge that they individually, and the business/organization they represent, to support our mission and the message above when providing an authorized signature on all contracts and registration forms.
