The main events:

With the theme shhhOUT: Past, Present & Proud, this year’s parade commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising. Grand marshals include Earline Budd, a trans activist; Brandon Wolf, who co-founded the nonprofit Dru Project after the Pulse Nightclub shooting; Matt Easton, a graduate of Brigham Young University who came out as gay during his valedictorian speech; and Dominique Jackson and Hailie Sahar, two stars of FX’s Pose. The parade starts at 21st and P streets Northwest, heads north on New Hampshire, and winds down P Street before terminating at 14th and R streets. Should you want someplace to stand, there’s a block party with food and beverages available at 15th and P, and a family zone at Stead Park. (Dupont and Logan circles, Saturday, 4:30 p.m.-8 p.m., FREE)

Pride weekend officially concludes with Sunday’s festival and concert. Pennsylvania Avenue will be lined with food and drink vendors and booths for local organizations. Meanwhile, DJ Marshmello is headlining the annual Capital Pride Concert, along with YouTube star Todrick Hall and singer Zara Larsson. The whole thing ends with a dance party at sunset. (Pennsylvania Avenue and 3rd St. NW, Sunday, festival 12 p.m.-10 p.m., concert 1 p.m.-10 p.m., FREE, VIP packages available)

The alternative:

For the first time in 12 years, a Dyke March will weave through D.C. on the eve of the Pride Parade. The theme for the unpermitted march, which isn’t affiliated with Capital Pride, is Dykes Against Displacement (nationalist symbols are banned, which has caused controversy over the exclusion of the Jewish pride flag over its resemblance to the Israeli flag.) The event begins with a pre-march gathering at McPherson Square at 5 p.m., where participants will be making signs, before beginning the walk at 6 p.m. The night ends with a rally in Dupont Circle. (McPherson Square Park, Friday, 5 p.m.-9 p.m., FREE)

If you love animals:

The Humane Rescue Alliance is offering name-your-own pricing for adoption fees when adopting dogs and cats this weekend at any of its locations. The organization will also be camped out on Pennsylvania Avenue during Saturday’s Pride Parade with dogs and cats ready to be adopted.

If you want food and drink specials:

For the month of June, DC9 is tweaking its chicken sandwich to resemble the one at Chick Fil A. Instead of the jalapeno slaw, tabasco aioli, and bread and butter pickles that normally top their fried chicken sammie, they’re doctoring the “Go Cluck Yourself” sandwich up with honey mustard, lettuce, and house-made pickles. And unlike that giant fast food chain, they’ll be donating their proceeds to local organizations that support LGBT youth, including D.C.’s own SMYAL (Supporting and Mentoring Youth Advocates and Leaders). (DC9, available throughout June, $12)

There’s a reason you’re seeing plenty of Republic Restoratives’ CIVIC Vodka on drink menus around town: The bar has teamed up with close to two dozen restaurants and bars to create a special cocktail for Pride month: 10 percent of profits from each drink will be donated to Trans Legal Advocates of Washington. Participating restaurants include Brothers and Sisters, Fare Well, Brookland’s Finest, and more.
