JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – River City Pride, in coordination with the City of Jacksonville, rescheduled its Pride parade after the original October date was postponed due to Hurricane Ian.
The parade will begin at 2 p.m. on Nov. 20, 2022 — a day that also honors the memory of the transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence: Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR).
