NYC Pride March to End & Disperse in Chelsea
The route of June 30’s 2024 NYC Pride March will see participants and spectators along portions of Fifth and Sixth Avenues, as well as a section of Christopher Street that has it passing Stonewall Inn and Stonewall National Monument.
But when it comes to crossing the finish line and dispersing, the place to be is once again Chelsea.
According to a 2024 Pride March map appearing on the nyc.gov website (click here to view—or see it directly above), the area dedicated to Pride March dispersal will be on 16th Street, from Sixth Ave. to Ninth Ave.; on 17th Street from Sixth Ave. to Eighth Ave.; on 18th Street from Sixth Ave. to Eighth Ave.; and on 19th Street from Sixth Ave. to Ninth Ave.
The 2024 NYC Pride March, according to the MTA as noted here, “will begin at 11am on June 30th from 25th Street and 5th Avenue. Marchers will proceed south on 5th Avenue before heading west on 8th Street. After crossing over 6th Avenue, the March will continue on Christopher Street passing the Stonewall National Monument. It will then turn north on 7th Avenue, passing the New York City AIDS Memorial, before dispersing in Chelsea at 16th Street and 7th Avenue.” That’s two blocks into West Chelsea—at least for the vast majority of armchair cartographers, who’ll tell you Chelsea begins at West 14th Street and proceeds Uptown until you reach… Hudson Yards? Hell’s Kitchen? Clinton? Well, let’s save nailing down the nabe’s end point for another time. Happy Pride!—By Scott Stiffler
