Join us in St. Pete’s “Proud and Free” Trans March | FREE Transportation from South Florida included!
THIS SATURDAY, June 28th, a bus will be leaving from South Florida and bringing folks up to St. Pete to join the march FOR FREE! Seats are limited, so we encourage you to register as early as possible to secure your spot. First 1,000 registrants will receive a free t-shirt with the winning design from a local queer, non-binary artist. Once you are registered for the bus, additional details on what to bring, accessibility options, and preparations for the day will be provided. The bus is scheduled to depart Saturday morning from Wilton Manor and return everyone safely by the end of the day. For the sake of security, additional details will be provided after you have registered. By joining this protest - whether you march, bike, ride a golf cart, or hold a sign in support - you are showing the world that every voice deserves to be heard, every identity deserves to be respected, and every person deserves the freedom to live authentically. This is more than a march — it’s a movement for equality, acceptance, and hope. Join us in creating change as we uplift our community and march proudly toward a future where everyone can thrive.
You must complete both registrations to participate.
