What if it rains on Saturday?
Plan for rain! Bring rain protection!
We will still process in the parade if it is raining, however, if there is lightning we will need to delay.
We will post any updates on our social media.

Metra will undergo construction the weekend of the Disability Pride Parade.
Those with accessibility needs who are taking Metra Electric need to exit at McCormick Place - this will be the ONLY accessible downtown station. There will be an accessible shuttle bus from McCormick to Milennium Station.
