NYC Dyke March - down 5th Avenue

It’s the time to hit the streets! Make some noise. Be visible. Be heard. Demonstrate, agitate, liberate! Bring signs, banners, drums, giant puppets, flags, hula hoops, or just be there! And if you really want to make things happen - be a marshal.

The Dyke March is a protest march, not a parade — we don’t ask for a permit, because we have the right to protest. We recognize that we must organize amongst ourselves to fight for our rights, our safety, and for visibility. Thousands of dykes take over the streets every year in celebration of LBTQ women and to protest against ongoing discrimination, harassment, and anti-LBTQ violence in schools, on the job, in our families, and on the streets.

We hope that this will be our biggest year with 20,000 dykes, lesbians, queer, bi, & trans women who identify with the march. Come out, support this event and take over 5th Avenue!

We step off at 5th Ave at 5pm sharp.

See you in the streets!
