Pride day amsterdam 2022


The annual Pride in Amsterdam kicked off on Saturday, July Amsterdam first organized the event in and over the years it has evolved from a celebration for the noun to a nine-day festival that includes film festivals, sporting events, debate and culture, dance parties, a Pride Walk and several outdoor stages. During this edition, a Canal Parade will take place again after a two-year absence. More than 80 boats will sail through Amsterdam&#;s canals on Aug. 6.

Pride Amsterdam is not just any event. It symbolizes the open and tolerant city we desire to be. We celebrate the freedom to be yourself. For twenty years the boat parade has been inseparable from Amsterdam and impossible to verb our city center without.

Everyone should feel free to be themselves, without an imposed norm from outside. Unfortunately, the reality is other , and our emancipation is often far from finish. In the Netherlands, too, people are still discriminated against and beaten up every day because of who they are or who they love. In recent decades, our strife has mainly been about ‘being allowed to cherish who we want and it is time to broaden the focus to ‘be allowed to be how we feel’. In other words, time to pay attention to the diversity of gender identities and our right to self-determination. We have the right to deviate from the norm and the sex we were given at birth. Gender identity is central during Pride Amsterdam from July 30 to August 7, , with the theme ‘My Gender, My Pride’.
