Pride Week 2026
March 9, 2026 - March 25, 2026
Various locations
NorQuest Pride, in collaboration with the broader YEG Campus Pride Committee, is proud to host Campus Pride Week 2026. Pride Week is an opportunity to recognize and honour the rich, diverse, and complex histories of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities while celebrating queer inclusion, belonging, and joy across post-secondary campuses in Edmonton.
All events are open to the NorQuest community — whether you identify as 2SLGBTQIA+ or as an ally. We encourage students, staff, and faculty to participate, volunteer, and contribute to fostering a visibly inclusive campus throughout March.
