Toronto as you might know, is hosting WorldPride 2014 – deemed an international Celebration incorporating Activism, Education, History and Culture of global LGBTTIQQ2SA Communities.  The dates for the Festivities have been confirmed to take place between June 20 to 29, 2014.

On the newly-confirmed dates, Pride Toronto Co-Chair Luke Amona says, “In the interest of good planning, the new dates ensure Toronto is capable of accommodating the predicted influx in tourism for WorldPride 2014.”.

In addition to these dates being confirmed, the Theme of the Celebration has been unveiled as Rise Up!.  Yes, as in the 1983 Hit from Toronto Band, Parachute Club.  Although a Teaser Video was leaked yesterday featuring the Song, Pride Toronto stated that they will in the next few weeks be releasing a new exciting Logo and official Teaser.
