Antwerp Pride 2023 Flanders

Info

Antwerp Pride takes place from the 9th to 13th August 2023.

For our 16th anniversary, we are planning a full edition with parade and festivals in new locations. The centrepiece in the many Pride events is the Pride Parade. Alongside the Parade we organize and/or welcome cultural, educational, activist, sportive… initiatives. We do this always from a positive, solution and common ground seeking approach. With great empathy towards all minorities and people at risk of exclusion. As a volunteer organization, we take great pride in building community throughout our events. Antwerp Pride originates from the LGBT+ community but actively seeks alliances with all people and organizations within the city that share our passion for a diverse, inclusive and engaged city.
