Autistic Pride Day is a pride celebration for autistic people held on 18 June each year.[1][2] Autistic pride[3] recognises the importance of pride for autistic people and its role in bringing about positive changes in the broader society.

Although Autistic Pride Day is 18 June, pride events are often held on the nearest weekend for logistical reasons, or at any other time.
