But many events that were slated to take place during the summer were -- and remain -- canceled, including LGBTQ Pride Month parades and marches that were planned for June.

Pride Month, which usually sees calendars filled with festivals and in-person gatherings, offers the chance for millions within the community and their allies to gather and celebrate being out and proud.

Pride will march on this year, just to a different tune.

Thanks to a slew of events taking place online, the LGBTQ community will still be able to connect to celebrate its resilience, diversity and history.

To help navigate what's going on, "GMA" has rounded up virtual Pride celebrations and digital events taking place throughout Pride Month.

Happy Pride!
