Pride 2019
PRIDE Barcelona is an event for everyone, a space where collectively we can can be heard and become visible, a place to celebrate and make a stand. From here we want to send a message to the world:
We have to love ourselves more. We have to love the outsiders, the people around us, those who are different from us and also those who think differently from us. We also have to show more respect for ourselves, it is because love has thousands of shapes and colours. Many times that’s the only thing we need. A little bit of love. A hug. A smile.
Barcelona has always been a city with an open heart and respect for diversity. We cannot forget about this. It’s time to get this feeling back. We want to gout out and scream that there is love for everyone. No matter who you are, no matter where you come from, this is for you.
The Sanitary Pandemic of COVID19 has affected the entire society and Pride! BCN is no stranger to this affectation, that is why, last April, the Organizing Committee of Pride! BCN agreed to suspend the regular programming of the event, based on massive face-to-face events, to propose a televised online programming the week of June 22-28.
This year, the LGBTI Pride celebration cannot be done in person, but we maintain our annual appointment with all of you through the screens.
Let’s separate now, to be closer together tomorrow.

Entities
Behind PRIDE BCN we have the support of more than 35 entities related to social, cultural and sports environment, family and health that work so that Barcelona continues to be a reference city for the LGTBI collective.
History
Barcelona hosts every summer, since 2008, the main LGBTI pride celebration in the Mediterranean: PRIDE BCN. For more than a week, the city celebrates an event of both a protesting and a festive nature, reinforcing the commitment of Barcelona with the struggle for the rights and freedoms of the LGTBI collective. More than 250,000 people come every year, making it one of the most popular Prides in Europe.
PRIDE BCN offers a program for everyone. We can find large events such as the Pride Parade or mass concerts, and also social and cultural activities such as conferences, talks, movies or exhibitions. And of course there is also space for families and proposals for the little ones. All supported by a great volunteering team that makes this experience all possible.
In our fight for LGTBI rights every year we commit ourselves to a social cause to provide visibility, create awareness and generate debates. These have been some of the main themes of the previous years:
Prides Friends
In PRIDE BCN we think that strength comes in numbers, and we also think that we have many reasons to continue campaigning and celebrating Pride, and not only in Barcelona. That’s why we want to invite you to participate in our Prides Friends. Take notes!
