Zurich Pride 2026 Switzerland

Info

Zurich Pride takes place on Saturday the 20th June 2026.

Zurich Pride will take place without a festival in 2026 Sometimes you need a break. It takes time to reflect on the most important things and recharge your batteries and then return with regained strength and fresh ideas. In 2026, Zurich Pride will therefore take place without a festival. Instead, we are focusing even more on the demonstration, which this year has the motto: ‹Protect Trans Youth – Access creates the future›. The political highlight of Zurich Pride will take place on June 20, as will at least one party. The board and OC are using the break for strategic realignment. In the end, the club's ailing finances, legacy issues from previous years, difficult conditions and a lack of resources to simultaneously plan a festival and initiate a strategic realignment as a volunteer board member tipped the scales.

Theme
Protect Queer Youth – Queer youth need protection from hate, discrimination, and exclusion.

Parade
We are demonstrating for freedom in every respect this year. But where exactly do we run through? From Helvetiaplatz from 13:00. It goes via the Stauffacher to the Paradeplatz and along the General-Guisan-Quai to the vicinity of the new festival square. Transportation is available for people with disabilities.
