Pride Parade 2026
To the streets with pride! Dissent and resistance.
The march has been called for Saturday, July 4, under the slogan “To the streets with pride! Dissent and resistance.” Together, we will once again ensure that the city of Madrid — and our Pride, the largest in Europe — remains an international benchmark for mobilization in defense of LGBTQ+ rights.
The Pride March is one of the most powerful tools we have to win our rights. This year, taking to the streets is essential: attacks against LGBTQ+ people have tripled in just two years. Only through citizen mobilization can we continue moving toward real, effective equality. It is no longer enough to avoid setbacks; we must keep advancing our rights in order to protect ourselves against organized hate.
Because we still have not achieved full equality: we are singled out, thrown out of our homes, harassed, insulted, discriminated against, and attacked. We are tired of stereotypes, of being sexualized, of being forced to leave our towns and villages, of seeing our families erased from school textbooks.
Tired of hiding who we are, of being erased, of having to overcome endless obstacles just to obtain documents that reflect our identity, tired of having to demand that our rights be upheld.
Pride is now. And it is urgent. Our strength is in the streets, and that is why we must make them our own. The time for simply resisting is over: we must keep moving forward, and every step counts. Add yours, and let’s take the next one together!
The march will set off from Madrid’s Carlos V roundabout at 7:00 p.m. and end at Plaza de Colón, where the manifesto will be read.
