The biggest human rights event in the Baltics, Baltic Pride, returns to Riga this year from June 6 to June 15. On Saturday, June 15, we will congregate for the culmination of the Baltic Pride 2024 week – March “Until We Are All Equal.”
This year, Baltic Pride invites all hearts to bloom and recognize the wonderful diversity found in all people around us. Each of us, just like flowers, is different in our essence, but together we form a wonderful unity – a meadow full of the most diverse flowers. Let’s let Riga bloom as an inclusive and brave Baltic state by inviting the public to be more accepting of everyone’s diversity! We invite everyone who cares for human rights and equality, and who values diversity and inclusion to express your support and participate in the Baltic Pride 2024 march.
After the march, the Baltic Pride 2024 closing event and concert will be held.
