The 2024 Chicago Pride Parade, set to feature actress and comedienne Fortune Feimster and her wife as grand marshals during Pride Month, has been subject to changes including a shortened route and initially reduced entries. Despite its growing popularity, Mayor Brandon Johnson's administration has allowed more groups to participate after adjustments. However, there remains frustration within the LGBTQ+ community over the downsizing and communication regarding the event's organization.
