"The Pride Run & Walk is an exciting new addition to Edmonton’s always colourful and vibrant Pride Festival. We invite you to come out and participate as an individual, office, or group and show your support for diversity, equity, and human rights in our great city.  This event is a fantastic opportunity to let all of your true colours shine bright. Bring your family, friends, and allies and help us get moving on the path towards full equality."
