On Monday, June 25 at 8:30 PM, Queer and Trans communities are invited to congregate at Nathan Phillips Square for what will be a celebratory and political Night March. Resulting from a recent community meeting held at the 519 Community Centre discussing how to keep political messaging in Pride, Night March was born with the intention of celebrating and demonstrating our rights and diverse voices. As well, given the violence experienced by our communities – often at night - the need for Night March is all the more appropriate.
We are starting at Nathan Phillips Square. We will then take to the streets in a festive and political procession that is sure to liven up downtown Toronto!
We are actively looking for marshals. If interested, please contact us or come and attend our training session being held on Thursday, June 20. Further details can be found here:

So come one, come all and join us on Monday, June 25 at 8:30 PM. From there, we will march along a super-secret-to-be-revealed-night-of route. So bring you messaging, bring your glowsticks, bring your flashiest outfit and most importantly, bring yourself. See you then!
In solidarity
