FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What's the easiest way to get to the start line?
The closest entrance to the start line is the Bartel-Pritchard Square, which is located at the intersection of Prospect Park West and 15 Street. The F / G subway lines are the most convenient and stop at 15 Street - Prospect Park. The B68 and B61 bus lines also stop at this intersection. Please check the MTA website for routes and times.

Is there a bag drop?
Yes, we'll have a place for you to keep your belongings while you run. Note that it may not be covered from the elements in the event of inclement weather. Please avoid bringing valuables.

My child would like to participate - can they?
They sure can! While there's no age restriction, we also want to make sure that everyone is safe as they make the loop of the park. It is also worth noting that we do not have youth t-shirt sizes.

Can I run with a stroller?
If you would like to participate with a stroller, we simply ask that you start at the back of the pack for the safety of you, the stroller passenger[s], and your fellow runners.

Can I run with my dog?
Unfortunately, due to liability reasons, we do not allow dogs to participate in the race. As much as we love our furry friends, we need to keep everyone, including them, safe.

I can't make the race. Can I get a refund or transfer my bib to another person?
We cannot accommodate refunds or transfers due to resourcing and commitments that were made when you registered. However, we are happy to switch your entry to a donation to Brooklyn Pride, Inc.

Oh no! The race is sold out but I really want to run. Is there any way that I can participate?
Due to restrictions from the Parks Department and ensuring that we have sufficient resources for all participants, we are capped at the total number of participants and cannot accept any more runners.

You may see a mention of the group or coupon code to register - this is for groups participating that may still have individuals that need to sign up.

We hope that you will be able to attend some of the other events that are happening for Brooklyn Pride, and if you want to volunteer, we've got opportunities for that, too!
