Next Saturday, June 28, Valencia will celebrate the central event of the Orgull LGTBIQ+ 2025 with a large demonstration that will run through the center of the city, from the Exhibition Bridge to the Town Hall Square.
Called by the Lambda collective under the slogan “Ara més que mai: Orgull”, the march will vindicate the rights of the LGTBIQ+ collective in a context of “growing hate speech and social regression”, say the organizers.
The demonstration, which will start at 7:30 p.m., is part of a month full of cultural, social and community activities organized by Lambda, with the aim of making sexual, gender and family diversity visible.
This year, the graphic image of the Pride has been created by Conchi Durán, student of the Escola d’Art i Superior de Disseny de València (EASD), and is inspired by the ideas of the philosopher Judith Butler, a symbol of the struggle for equality and freedom of identity.
