Chennai Rainbow Pride 2023

Info

Chennai Rainbow Pride takes place on Sunday the 25th June 2023.

Chennai marks the 15th year of Pride in the city in June-July 2023. Events this season celebrate visibility of alternate sexualities and gender identities and affirm the notion of self-respect as a key goal of our movement. This year's Pride march will take place on Sunday, June 25, 2023, subject to police permission. Venue is to be finalised.

In 2009, local groups and collectives working in the areas of sexuality, gender identity, human rights and health/HIV came together under the banner of Chennai Rainbow Coalition, and organized a series of events in the city culminating in the first march on the last Sunday of the month.

As of 2023, the Tamil Nadu Rainbow Coalition consists of collectives, CBOs and NGOs and individuals working to raise visibility around sexuality and gender identity issues.
