Road closure navigation, strategic drop-offs around 5th Avenue and Greenwich Village, corporate group coordination, and post-march pickup from the periphery.
The NYC Pride March on the last Sunday of June is one of the largest Pride events in the world. The march proceeds south on 5th Avenue from 25th Street to 8th Street, then west through Greenwich Village to Christopher Street and the Hudson River piers. Pride Week — the final week of June — culminates in a weekend of celebrations that transform Manhattan south of 34th Street.
The transportation challenge during Pride is primarily about road closures. 5th Avenue is closed from 25th Street to 8th Street from approximately 10 AM to 6 PM. Greenwich Village and West Village streets are extensively closed. Crosstown traffic below 34th Street is severely disrupted throughout the day. The FDR Drive remains open, but getting across town requires knowledge of which streets are passable and which are blocked.
True North VIP chauffeurs navigate Pride closures every year. We know which approach routes work, where to stage for drop-off and pickup, and how to get you to your celebration without sitting in grid-locked traffic. For NJ clients, we route through the Lincoln Tunnel rather than the Holland Tunnel to avoid Village-area closures entirely.
The busiest transportation days are Friday through Sunday. Plan your rides accordingly.
Mon-Thu, June 22-25
Parties, fundraisers, and community events across Manhattan. Transportation demand is moderate — standard service with awareness of evening event locations in Chelsea, the Village, and Hell's Kitchen.
Friday, June 26
The unofficial start of Pride Weekend. Major parties and events across Manhattan, particularly in Chelsea and the Meatpacking District. High evening demand for car service — book early for Friday night transportation.
Saturday, June 27
PrideFest street fair (typically Hudson Street area) and Pride Island concerts create concentrated demand in the Village and surrounding neighborhoods. Road closures begin in the Hudson Street corridor. Hourly service recommended for multi-event days.
Sunday, June 28
The main event. March from 25th St & 5th Ave south through Greenwich Village to Christopher Street. Extensive road closures from 10 AM to 6 PM. Post-march celebrations continue into the evening. Professional car service with closure navigation is essential.
Understanding the closure map is essential for Pride Sunday transportation.

Pride Weekend is a multi-day celebration. Here's how to plan your transportation across the full weekend.
Many companies participate in the Pride March or host corporate Pride events. We provide fleet coordination for corporate groups.
Multi-vehicle transportation for corporate groups marching in the Pride parade. Pickup from offices, coordinated staging near the march assembly area at 25th & 5th, and return transportation after.
Transportation for corporate Pride events, employee celebrations, and team outings. Sprinter vans for groups up to 14 from the office to venues across Manhattan.
Host clients at Pride events with professional transportation. Coordinated arrival, dedicated chauffeur, and seamless return — corporate billing across all rides.
Book online or call +1-347-321-9929. Specify Pride event, date, pickup location, and whether you need hourly or point-to-point service.
Your confirmation includes venue-specific drop-off and pickup instructions based on the Pride closure map. We plan the route around closures, not through them.
Chauffeur name, vehicle, and direct phone number 24 hours before. On Pride Sunday, we send a morning update with real-time closure information.
Your chauffeur navigates around the closure zone and delivers you to the nearest accessible point to your destination. Short walk to the celebration.
Post-event pickup from a designated point on the periphery of the closure zone. Walk out, text your chauffeur, and leave the crowd behind.
Direct return home or onward to the next Pride event. Hourly clients continue seamlessly — point-to-point clients can book the next ride.
Everything you need to know about getting around NYC during Pride Week 2026.
NYC Pride 2026 transforms Manhattan south of 34th Street. Road closures, massive crowds, and rideshare surge pricing make professional car service the smart choice. Our chauffeurs know the closure map, the approach routes, and the pickup points that work.
