Transportation to the Parade
The easiest way to get to the parade is via the Muni Metro Subway. If you're marching in the parade, Embarcadero Station is nearest to the formation areas. If you're going to watch, Civic Center, Powell and Montgomery stations are all along the parade route.
Muni will be providing extra metro service on the K Ingleside/T Third, L Taraval and M Ocean View to serve the large crowds; each of these lines will have two-car trains.
The 30/45 SoMa Shuttle will also operate in a loop between the Caltrain Station and Mission Street until the parade is over.

BART is asking riders using clipper to make sure they have value on the card before Sunday. They say this will help people avoid any potential issues with the mobile app, and cut down on lines at stations downtown.
Street Closures
As of Thursday morning, Fulton between Larkin and Hyde streets will be closed as well as Grove street between Polk and Larkin. More streets are expected to close on Friday and Saturday.

Weekend Weather Forecast
Weather forecast for 2022 Pride weekend in SF
A weather pattern more typical for this time of year settles across San Francisco as Pride activities reach their peak this weekend.
It starts with our friends, the marine layer clouds and sea breeze. They keep us from over-heating like we did earlier this week.
Each morning finds us blanketed by a gray sky and the need to find a jacket before heading outside. We wake up to temperatures in the lower to middle 50s.
The cloud deck retreats and settles along the coast late morning through late afternoon. As we transition to evening the clouds begin their march east. If you're anywhere near the Golden Gate Bridge or Marina, expect clouds most of the day.
High temperatures warm to near 70 by early afternoon. Then the sea breeze ramps us and cools us into the 60s by late afternoon and 50s during the evening.
