Did you know that Canada’s first Pride event was a picnic? In 1971, around 300 people gathered on the Toronto Islands for a "Gay Day Picnic." This sparked a movement of community building and the opening of safe spaces across the country. #ad

The PTP Pink Awards is a national event and content series featuring 2SLGBTQIA+ celebrities and activists (Champions) by recognizing community organizations (Changemakers) doing front line work with queer and trans communities in Canada.

As queer and trans rights remain at risk and these communities continue to be targeted by hateful narratives, the PTP Pink Awards counters these narratives by celebrating achievement and shining a spotlight on the people doing urgent work to fight back and protect 2SLGBTQIA+ communities.

The 2025 PTP Pink Awards will take place on November 6, 2025 at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel in Toronto.

The celebratory evening is co-hosted by award-winning actor Emily Hampshire and Canada’s Drag Race resident Choreographer Hollywood Jade, with the pre-awards pink carpet hosted by Bell Media’s popular radio personality Shannon Burns.
