All weekend, we’re out in the streets — the marches, the stages, the block parties — feeding this post snapshots, sounds and scenes as they unfold. Follow along for Pride in real time, one dispatch at a time.

2:30 p.m. — And we’re off
Pride weekend is here — and this year it’s sharing the spotlight with the World Cup, the tournament playing out across the Bay Area just as the city throws its biggest party. Mission Local is fanning out across San Francisco to bring it all to you live.
Our reporters are heading out now: to Dolores Park, where the Trans March gathers this afternoon; to the Embarcadero, Civic Center and the parade route as the weekend unfolds; and into the Mission’s own corner of the party all weekend long. This year’s Pride lands under the banner “Resistance in Action,” with the trans community — and the city’s promises to it — squarely at the center.
Stick with us. We’ll keep this post updated all weekend with dispatches, color and photos from the field. Pull up a chair — or a curbside spot on Market — and follow along.

We won’t ignore your neighborhood
When a San Francisco neighborhood has a Mission Local reporter, it means someone is there. We’re following new housing projects proposed on your block, keeping tabs on what your district supervisor is up to at City Hall, and letting you know when longtime businesses close (and new ones open). When big news breaks, we already know the context.
Most neighborhoods don’t have that. Yours could.
That’s what Mission Local is building. Our reporters don’t parachute in — they write consistently on San Francisco, so you’re never reading about your neighborhood from someone who just looked it up.
So far we are in five of San Francisco’s neighborhoods. But we know all San Franciscans deserve our kind of coverage. Will you join us?
