Pride March: Where to March Before Voting This Weekend?

Every year, June marks Pride Month, celebrating and highlighting the experiences and struggles of LGBTQI+ people. In 2024, it has a bittersweet taste, overshadowed by the rise of the far right and the ambient climate of uninhibited transphobia. The weekend promises to be intense for struggles because Sunday will see the crucial first round of legislative elections. But before that, on Saturday, several cities are organizing their annual Pride march. At a time when it is essential to stand together against LGBTphobic hate, here is a list of the marches organized this weekend.
