See you on Saturday 17 May 2025!
In 2025, Brussels Pride - In the Capital of Europe will take place on 17 May, a highly symbolic date as it coincides with the IDAHOBIT (International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia). This year's event will be a significant watershed moment, as it will be the first time that Brussels Pride has been organised since it was added to the Brussels-Capital Region's Intangible Cultural Heritage List (see below).
Associations, non-profits and companies wishing to take part in the event are invited to register.
Brussels Pride: Intangible Cultural Heritage of the Brussels-Capital Region
In October 2024, the Brussels-Capital Region added Brussels Pride to its intangible cultural heritage list (along with the Ommegang, chips and comic strips). As a result, Brussels Pride became only the second Pride in the world to benefit from such institutional recognition. In terms of long-term goals, a transnational application, led by Amsterdam, will be submitted to UNESCO in a few years' time, with a view to gaining official recognition for Pride throughout the world, thereby strengthening the guarantee of the rights of LGBTQIA+ people on a global scale, at a time when there have sadly been too many setbacks.
