Diverse locaties / Various locations

Canal Parade

The world-famous Canal Parade on the canals of Amsterdam is one of the most memorable highlights of Pride. Spectators can watch about 80 boats representing everything from small LGBTQI+foundations to pink organisations within national multinational networks. They all cruise the city canals in elaborately decorated boats and dinghies to celebrate the past, present and future of the LGBTI community - and to show that it doesn't matter who or what you are.

Hartjesdagen

Hartjesdag

Hartjesdag will return to the Zeedijk in August 2024 with a new edition. The Hartjesdag is a multi-day festival on the Zeedijk, one of the oldest streets in Amsterdam. On the third Monday in August, Hartjesdag was the carnival for Amsterdam and the surrounding area. Men dressed like women, and women wore men's clothes. It was the day that Amsterdammers went all out. Please note: Listed date and time for 2025 is subject to change.

Internationaal Theater Amsterdam (ITA)

Safe Space in partnership with Dress & Dance

ITA wants everyone to feel safe. And especially during Pride. Not everyone feels safe to travel to Amsterdam in their ultimate Pride outfit. Dress & Dance is the organization that ensures that there is a safe space in the Reguliersdwarsstraat every Saturday evening. This will happen once during the Canal Parade in the International Theater Amsterdam, on Leidseplein. Drag queen Bok Choi is present for make-up and styling advice, and hosts and security guards are present to provide a safe environment.

Vondelpark

Movember Run Amsterdam

Proudly perform your slowest 5km run of the season, as that free-flowing moustache you've grown for Movember drags you back in the winter wind! This event's not just for men though: ladies can participate as well, so join the cause and race through Amsterdam's Vondelpark. Instead of running it's also allowed to walk along the route. Startingpoint is Tennisclub Kattenlaan, Kattenlaan 13.
Please note: Date and time for 2024 need to be confirmed.
