While it\u2019s Pride Month in America\u00a0in June, many of the European gay pride festivals & parades take place later in the summer. From the big capital cities to small towns, there are over 100 different LGBT pride parades taking place across the continent. With live music, activism seminars, LGBT film festivals, and of course the ubiquitous pride parade, there\u2019s something for everyone during the European pride season. Here’s my list of pride events around the continent this summer, taking place in some of the best gay cities in Europe.<\/p>\n

Athens<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Part of a week-long event focused on politics, Athens Pride culminates with a march and rally in June. This public event has taken place since 2005 and last year’s theme for the event focused on femininity. Not just as a biological feature, but one that is experienced, learned, defined, projected and celebrated in society.<\/p>\n

During Athens Pride, most things pick up in the late afternoon with local organizations and activist groups setting up stands promoting their diverse causes during a public street fair. There\u2019s also a stage with live performers and speeches throughout the day and night.<\/p>\n

Barcelona<\/strong><\/h2>\n

While you might expect Barcelona Pride to take place on the city\u2019s beautiful beaches, the main event is a pride parade through the city that ends at Plaza Espa\u00f1a with a series of concerts by LGBTQ musicians and Eurovision favorites like Loreen and Conchita Wurst.<\/p>\n

Other events during the festival include vermouth tastings and a street market in Barcelona\u2019s gay neighborhood, Eixample (also called Gayxample). The event is largely inclusive of the vast LGBT+ spectrum and there are even family-focused events across the city such as a pride day at Tibidabo, Barcelona\u2019s hilltop amusement park.<\/p>\n

London<\/strong><\/h2>\n

London\u2019s Pride Festival is a month-long affair with pop-up shops and LGBT+ events happening across the city, though it’s largely centered on the historic gay London neighborhood of Soho in the city’s centre. Their pride month ends with London’s pride parade through the city on July 6th.<\/p>\n

Look out for the alternative events, such as the many theatre plays taking place (Grindr the Opera<\/a> got extra attention last year).<\/p>\n

Berlin <\/strong><\/h2>\n

In Germany, the pride marches and festivals are called Christopher Street Day, in a nod to the Stonewall riots that launched the modern LGBTQ rights movement. Germany\u2019s biggest CSD is in Berlin with nearly 500,000 participants each year. The pride festival starts the weekend before the CSD march with a street fair (featuring shopping and live music) in Sch\u00f6neberg and then ends with a pride parade on July 28th.<\/p>\n

The Berlin pride parade takes place throughout the city and ends in front of the iconic Brandenburg Gate, with live performances on a center stage and DJs blasting music from many of the floats that sit parked in the Tiergarten park. Late-night parties and techno is the norm during Berlin CSD.<\/p>\n

Stockholm<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Scandinavia\u2019s largest pride festival, Stockholm Pride, coincides with\u00a0EuroPride<\/a>\u00a0(the annual\u00a0pan-European LGBTI\u00a0pride festival), so it’s one of gay Europe\u2019s largest summer celebrations. Stockholm Pride features a pride park with live music, vendors, and even a “kink learning center” for adults.<\/p>\n

During the pride parade, the city is filled with rainbows and many businesses (including the city\u2019s public buses and transportation) deck out in LGBTQ pride flags.<\/p>\n

Pride Amsterdam is one of Europe\u2019s most unique pride parades\u2014because it takes place on the city\u2019s UNESCO World Heritage canals during a \u201cCanal Parade\u201d! Eighty boats move through the city in a parade where people line the canals, cheering on the boats as they drive by. Other highlights during Pride Amsterdam include Drag Olympics and a Pride Park in the city\u2019s spacious Vondelpark.<\/p>\n

Last year’s\u00a0Milkshake Festival<\/a>\u00a0the weekend before the Pride wasn’t to be missed – a 2-day queer music and arts festival with mega-LGBTQ stars, artists, DJs and performers such as Amanda Lepore, Christeene, and Discodromo. It’s one of Europe\u2019s best queer festivals!<\/p>\n

Brighton <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Brighton\u2019s annual pride festival is the UK\u2019s largest and features a parade (referred to as the \u201cCarnival of Diversity\u201d) as well as a mega-festival in Preston Park. Last year\u2019s headlining performer was none other than Britney Spears.<\/p>\n

Over 300,000 people take part in the pride parade and festival with a diverse representation of the UK\u2019s LGBT+ population. Already one of the UK\u2019s most LGBT-friendly cities, Brighton comes alive with rainbows and color during the weeks surrounding Brighton Pride. Earlier in the summer, Brighton also hosts its own Trans Pride<\/a>. Now in its 7th year, this separate event celebrates gender diversity and\u00a0highlights visibility and safety for the trans community.<\/p>\n

Prague<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One of Europe\u2019s newer LGBT pride festivals and parades, Prague Pride was founded in 2010 and has quickly grown into an important political and activist-oriented event. The LGBT parade takes place through the city and ends with a festival at the Pride Park, featuring Czech performers, pop stars and DJs playing until 10pm.<\/p>\n

After-parties continue in Prague\u2019s many lesbian and gay bars, and in the days leading up to the parade, a Pride Village opens on the riverside, with community organizations, political discussions, and seminars taking place.<\/p>\n

As a leader in Europe’s gay rights movement, Denmark\u2019s capital pride celebration features several different events, including the pride parade through the city that ends in the Copenhagen City Hall Square.

One of my personal favorite pride festivals, Manchester Pride includes a pride parade through the city and a total transformation of the UK\u2019s most famous “gayborhood” on and around Canal Street. The pride parade, free and open to the public, moves through the city and includes a live stream from Gaydio (also based in Manchester).<\/p>\n
