Sexual and gender diversity

Campaign 2025

Under the slogan ‘Freedom to be’, this year Barcelona is once again asserting itself as a diverse and welcoming city working every day to become a safe place, committed to and active in combating LGBTI-phobia. 

It is a leading city in the fight for the rights of LGBTI people, and once again, it will be filled with pride, championing citizens’ right and freedom to be themselves. Because everyone who lives in the city must be able to live their identity freely and safely.

Campaign 2024

Barcelona once again asserted its status as a city of rights during the celebration of International LGBTI Pride Day. An event to continue building a pioneering city in the defence of rights to diversity and gender and the freedoms of its citizens, and also to highlight initiatives by different LGBTI rights groups and associations in each of the city’s neighbourhoods.

Campaign 2023

The initiatives “Neighbourhood Pride” and “Museum Pride” offered an extensive programme of activities throughout June, drawn up in collaboration with the Barcelona LGBTI Centre, managed by the Platform of LGBTI Entities of Catalonia. A cultural programme designed for the public to enjoy and assert sexual, affective and gender diversity.

Campaign 2022

From 21 May to 28 June, Barcelona decked itself out in festive and protest garb for L’Orgullosa, to show the world that the city is a benchmark for the rights and freedoms of LGTBI communities, the fight against LGTBI-phobia and the promotion of sexual and gender diversity.

The celebrations took place across various city neighbourhoods, inviting city residents to enjoy a wide range of artistic activities, culminating in a grand musical gala on 28 June, the International LGTBI Pride Day, at the Olympic Ring in Montjuïc.
