Copenhagen Pride Parade will take place at 13.00 on Saturday 16 August 2025.
 
Individuals and groups of friends don’t need to apply to be in the Parade: you can just turn up on the day but please follow the instructions of our Parade volunteers and staff.
 
If you are a community organisation or group and you want to apply to be in the Parade, please come back here in April when we will open Parade applications. 
 
The only businesses allowed in the Parade are those who’ve demonstrated their commitment to the LGBTI+ community by being Partners of Copenhagen Pride. To find out more about becoming a Partner, please email [email protected] and we will get back to you.
 

What is the Pride Parade?

The Pride Parade is a demonstration for acceptance and rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, asexual and queer (also referred to as LGBTI+) people. Individuals and small groups of friends do not need to register to participate in the Parade, but groups and companies do. 

As a participant in the Parade during Copenhagen Pride, you join this demonstration for fundamental principles of freedom and human rights, as well as a celebration of diversity.

By diversity we mean that participation in the Parade reflects the general diversity of our society, including variations in age, ethnicity, gender identity, gender expression, religion, physical ability and educational background of the participants. It is a goal in itself that the space we create is not just aimed at individual population groups. If you stand with us, you stand for everyone in our community, without exception.

The Parade is about freedom, rights and acceptance; about understanding that we are not all the same or think alike, and about respect for the individual’s right to their own body, identity, expression and sexuality. It is a goal to create an inclusive and safer space to celebreate our community and demand our equal rights.
