A week of events and the big parade for the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community
Liguria Pride is the most important event in Liguria for the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community. Promoted by Coordinamento Liguria Rainbow, it animates Genoa every year with a week of cultural and political initiatives that culminate in the big city parade, a moment of celebration and advocacy that fills the streets of the center.
For eight days, the Giardini Luzzati, in the heart of the historic center, host the Liguria Pride Village: over fifty events including meetings, debates, shows, and cultural events, making the area a reference point for the community and the city. The talks address contemporary issues, from the relationship between masculinity and warmongering to ecofeminism, from care and healthcare as political spaces to neocolonialism. The Village Kids program, with initiatives dedicated to children, is also confirmed.
The highlight is the city parade on Saturday, June 13th. The gathering is scheduled for 3 PM in via San Benedetto, with the parade starting at 4 PM, arriving at Piazza De Ferrari, where the final speech dedicated to the synthesis of the 2026 Political Manifesto will be held. A colorful river of people, floats, and music that crosses the center of Genoa in an atmosphere of celebration and participation.
The guiding theme of the 2026 edition is "That time when fear was everywhere. And we thought again of a storm", a political reflection that runs through the entire program. More than just a party, Liguria Pride is a space for political and cultural elaboration that opens up to the city, reaffirming the commitment to equality and rights for all.
The 2026 edition of Liguria Pride takes place from June 6 to 13 in Genoa. The Pride Village at Giardini Luzzati hosts over fifty events for eight days, including meetings, debates, shows, and cultural initiatives, with the theme "That time when fear was everywhere. And we thought again of a storm".
The week culminates in the big parade on Saturday, June 13th, which crosses the city center to Piazza De Ferrari, where the synthesis of the 2026 Political Manifesto will be read.
The Giardini Luzzati are in the historic center of Genoa, reachable on foot from the Genova Brignole and Genova Principe stations and from the San Giorgio and De Ferrari metro stops. The parade starts from via San Benedetto and arrives at Piazza De Ferrari.
The Village events and the parade are free to attend. Full program on the Liguria Pride website.
