Residents
Welcome! You live within or nearby the secure perimeter of the San Francisco Pride celebration. This two-day event brings a vibrant atmosphere with a parade, festival, and many activities. Here's some helpful information for you:
If you are located in the red zone, your residence is within the secure perimeter, and you will have to present ID or go through security. The yellow zone is impacted by street closures, but outside of security. Residents along Market street will primarily be affected by the closure of Market on Sunday for the parade.
