Long Beach Dyke March is an Annual Rally, March and After Party that empowers all women in the LGBT community and their supporters.

The goal of the Dyke March is to increase lesbian visibility and support the rights of all women regardless of labels, including bisexual and transgender women. Disparities in health care, equal pay, LGBT rights, domestic violence and hiring opportunities are some of the problems that are still real for women. This is not a parade but an exercise in civil rights to peacefully assemble.
