How to get to the Cleveland Pride parade and festival
The Pride march and festival are both easy to get to from the Cleveland freeways. It is recommended that marchers park near the festival in the morning, and walk or carpool to the march stepoff at East 22nd and Euclid Ave., avoiding a return to the stepoff site after the festival ends. It is about a 25-minute walk.
Since Pier Park is at the end of a pier, there is no parking right at the festival. (The one lot there is reserved for passengers of the Goodtime III, which docks at the pier.) Parking is available at the newly-reopened Willard Park garage, on East 9th St. just north of Lakeside, or the Burke Airport lot, on North Marginal Rd.
From the east via I-90
To the festival: Take I-90 into Cleveland, then follow the Shoreway (Ohio 2 West), labeled “Downtown Cleveland,” “Rock n Roll Hall of Fame" (Exit 174-B). Get off at the first exit, East 9th St. The festival is to the right, at the north end of East 9th, but there is no parking on the pier. Turn left at the end of the exit ramp and cross the freeway bridge to the Willard Park city garage on the right, or turn right and immediately right again onto North Marginal Rd., and go one block to the Burke Airport parking lot.
To the march stepoff: Follow I-90 into Cleveland, but don't take the Shoreway exit. Instead, continue around the curve with flashing arrows to the Prospect Ave. exit, 173-A. Turn right at the top of the exit ramp. The first stoplight is East 22nd St.; the march gathering area is on the right. Park in the lot on
Prospect east of E. 22nd, or in the Cleveland State University garages on East 22nd north of Euclid.
From the south or west via l-77, 1-71, or I-90
To the festival: Follow I-71 or I-77 into downtown where they merge into I-90. Continue on I-90 east to the Shoreway West exit, 174-B, labeled “Ohio 2 West, Lakewood," which comes sharply off the right immediately after the curve with flashing arrows. Once on Ohio 2 West, follow the route from the east above.
To the march stepoff: Get off I-90 at the Carnegie Ave. exit, 172-D, and turn right (right turn only) at the top of the exit ramp. Turn left at the first stoplight, East 30th; go one block and turn left again onto Prospect Ave. Follow Prospect across the freeway bridge to East 22nd St.; see above directions from the east for parking.
From the northwest via Ohio 2 Shoreway
To the festival: Follow Lake or Clifton Rds. through Lakewood to the Shoreway, Ohio 2. Get off the Shoreway at the East 9th St. exit, and turn right for the Willard Park garage, or left to North Marginal Rd., as noted in "From the east" above.
To the march site: Follow the Shoreway to I-90 West, and take I-90 West to the Prospect Ave. exit, 173-A, then follow directions from the east above.
