Who we are

Rainbow Pride Auckland is an LGBTQIA+ not-for-profit organisation that produces the Auckland Rainbow Parade and supportive initiatives throughout the year.  

Rainbow Pride Auckland is all about vibrant celebration and inclusivity. We’re here to create a dazzling parade that showcases the incredible diversity of Auckland’s LGBTQIA+ communities and our allies.

We believe in:

• Celebrating individuality and identity: Everyone under the rainbow flag is welcome, no matter who you are or how you express yourself.
• Promoting acceptance and community: We want to create a space where everyone feels seen, heard, and supported.
• Showcasing Auckland’s Rainbow spirit: We’ll throw a world-class parade that grabs attention – both locally and internationally.

We partner with:

• Community groups: Together, we’ll create a celebration that reflects the heart and soul of Auckland’s rainbow community.
• Businesses: We believe businesses play a vital role in fostering inclusivity.
• Public sector: United, we can build a more welcoming and vibrant Auckland for everyone.

Our goal:

Create unforgettable experiences that become synonymous with Auckland’s Rainbow community. We want the parade to be an event people talk about for years to come, fostering shared experiences and a sense of belonging.

We’re a proud and forward-thinking organisation. Our mission is simple: organise a parade that celebrates diversity, inclusion, and unity. Because everyone deserves to shine!
