Pride will be 7th June

This year’s Pride March will be in Geneva on Saturday June 7th.

It’ll kick off at 2pm on the Quai Wilson and end on the Place Neuve at 4.30. 

The co-president of the Pride March, Xavier Lavatelli, says the march is a celebration – but also a protest for equality and recognition of diversity. 

35,000 are expected to take part. The march is held in Geneva every two years.
