This form is for all parade groups to apply for participation in the 2025 NWA Pride Parade.
All applications require payment at the time of submission. However, if your application is rejected, we will refund your entry within seven business days.
Each parade entry requires a separate registration. Please do not combine groups or unregistered candidate election campaigns unless you have explicit instructions from NWA Equality's staff. Combining groups causes check-in issues and complicates the parade lineup.
Confirmed event sponsors should contact Richard Gathright at info@nwapride.org for information regarding parade and vendor spaces related to their sponsorship agreement.
