Organizers expect 3 million people to attend the pride march.
Every few years the international organization InterPride selects one city to host WorldPride.
This year is New York City, followed by Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2021.
LGBTQ residents are encouraged to submit a video up to three minutes long showcasing why they’re proud to be New Yorkers and what neighborhood they would showcase to LGBTQ visitors.
Winners will be featured in a promotional campaign and have the chance to participate in the pride march on June 30.
The deadline to enter is March 31.
