Getting to Pride

We strongly encourage taking public transit

Leave the Car at Home

With over 500,000 people attending Pride weekend, parking is nearly impossible and traffic is extremely heavy. Public transportation is the fastest, easiest, and most sustainable way to get to Pride.

BART

Best Option: Civic Center/UN Plaza Station is one block from the Celebration at Civic Center Plaza.

BART provides frequent service from throughout the Bay Area with longer trains on Pride weekend to accommodate crowds. All downtown SF stations provide easy access to the Parade route along Market Street.

Visit BART.gov

Muni

Multiple Muni lines serve the Civic Center area. The F-Market historic streetcar line runs along the Parade route.

Download the MuniMobile app for easy ticketing. Clipper Card users receive transfer discounts.

Key Routes: 5, 6, 7, 9, 19, 21, 47, 49, F-Market

Caltrain

Coming from the Peninsula or South Bay? Take Caltrain to the San Francisco (4th & King) station, then transfer to Muni or a short rideshare to Civic Center.

Caltrain runs on a convenient schedule throughout Pride weekend.

Bike

Biking is a great option! Bike parking will be available near the Celebration entrance. SF has an extensive network of bike lanes and protected paths.

Bay Wheels bike share stations are located throughout downtown SF.

Expect Crowds

Be patient and kind. We're all celebrating together!

If You Must Drive

We strongly discourage driving. Parking is extremely limited, and many streets will be closed for the Parade. If you must drive, consider:

  • Parking in an outer neighborhood and taking Muni/BART to Civic Center
  • Using rideshare and getting dropped off several blocks away from the event
  • Arriving very early (before 9am) if you need to park downtown

Note: Market Street from Embarcadero to Civic Center will be closed for the Parade on Sunday, along with numerous cross streets.
