Become a Volunteer:
The realization of Thessaloniki Pride and EuroPride 2024 Thessaloniki would remain just an idea without your participation!
You can become a volunteer and help us paint Thessaloniki in rainbow colors.
Why should I participate in Thessaloniki Pride?

I participate in Thessaloniki Pride, because:
I demand:
✔ equal rights for same-sex couples
✔ abolition of discrimination on the basis of gender identity and sexual orientation
✔ the dignity that every gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender person deserves within society
✔ sexual education at school
✔ legal protection from hate speech by religious and political leaders
✔ eradication of homophobia-transphobia
I honour:
✔ those who stood up and fought against the violence they suffered at the Stonewall Inn in 1969
✔ those who have fought for LGBTI rights around the globe
I learn about:
✔ the Stonewall Inn and the origins of the LGBTΙ movement
✔ LGBTΙ rights in my country
✔ incidents of homophobia-transphobia in my city and what I can do about them
✔ how to protect my health
I send the message:
✔ that sexual diversity is acceptable not only privately, but also publicly
✔ that Thessaloniki is a city that is open and tolerant of any type of minority
✔ that no one should be ashamed of their sexual and gender identity
I celebrate:
✔ alterity and the social wealth it provides
✔ the harmonious coexistence of all sexual and gender identities within the fabric of society
✔ and become acquainted with people who share my concerns
✔ and flirt and enjoy myself at parties and artistic events
