Copenhagen Pride

Every year in August, Copenhagen Pride offers activities where gay issues are at the center of attention. It is both festive, colourful and political with awards, parties, concerts, films and other kinds of entertainment.

During the period - also known as Pride Week - there are plenty of activities around Copenhagen, with City Hall Square - renamed Pride Square - as the focal point of action.

Copenhagen Pride Parade

Copenhagen Pride always ends with a large, festive and colourful parade. More than 10,000 gays, lesbians, transsexuals and bisexuals strut their stuff through the city, jamming the traffic with floats, rainbow flags, dykes on bikes, screaming queens and leather guys.

When the weather is good, the parade usually gathers thousands of spectators lining the parade route, which ends at City Hall Square in the heart of Copenhagen.
