The host city is usually one with an established LGBTI Pride event or a strong LGBTI community. When voting for the host city, the experience of the organisers, the political significance of the event for the region and host city’s LGBTI friendliness all come into play.
The EuroPride licence is owned by European Pride Organisers Association, an umbrella organisation for European Pride organisers. The host city of the Association and therefore is chosen by member organisations.
EuroPride was first celebrated in London in 1992, attended by estimated crowds of over 100,000. Since then it has continued to grow both in number of participants and political significance, though not always at the same time. In 1997 in Paris over 300,000 people marched to the Bastille. In 2011 around one million people attended Pride festivities in Rome by the Coliseum. Some smaller scale EuroPrides have taken place, such as in Warsaw, Poland, where 10,000 people braved the streets of still conservative ex-communist country to hold an important political demonstration that proved to be a turning point for LGBT rights in Poland. In 2015, EuroPride took place in Riga, Latvia, the first time in a former Soviet country, and in 2022 it took place in Belgrade, Serbia, the first time in south-eastern Europe.
It was a convention by EPOA that a WorldPride event held in Europe typically carries the title of EuroPride so there are no two clashing international LGBTI pride events in Europe the same year. In 2017, WorldPride took place in Madrid, Spain, in 2021 it was in Copenhagen, Denmark and in 2026 it will be in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
WorldPride, organised by InterPride (International Pride Organisers Association, of which EPOA is a part), is an international Pride event that promotes LGBTI issues on an global level.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_btn title=”Thessaloniki Pride” style=”custom” custom_background=”#009ee2″ custom_text=”#ffffff” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fthessalonikipride.com%2F||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_btn title=”Europride 2024″ style=”custom” custom_background=”#e0378b” custom_text=”#ffffff” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.epoa.eu%2Feuropride%2Feuropride2024%2F||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_btn title=”Accommodation” style=”custom” custom_background=”#784298″ custom_text=”#ffffff” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Faccommodation.thessalonikipride.com%2Fsearch%2Fhotels%3Fservice%3Dhotels%26searchQuery%3Dcity-5582%26startDate%3D2024-06-23%26endDate%3D2024-06-26%26account-country%3DGR%26onRequest%3D0%26payAtTheHotel%3D1%26onlyApartments%3D0%26adults%3D2%26children%3D||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_empty_space height=”100″][vc_custom_heading text=”Europride 2024 Thessaloniki” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fgreeceonthego.gr%2Fthessaloniki-fun-team-building-activities%2F|||”][vc_column_text]Experience Europride 2024 Thessaloniki in unparalleled comfort and style with GreeceontheGo, the official accommodation partner of this exhilarating event.
