What began as a small, one-day event in Amsterdam in 1996 has expanded to a multi-day festival, attracting more than 500.000 visitors from the Netherlands and abroad. This year the famous Canal Parade is cancelled, but there is a dynamic programme taking place! Let's hope the Dutch weather stays fine for the outdoor part of the event because it's one of the most famous festivals on the Amsterdam events calendar! Celebrating diversity and acceptance Time to celebrate 25 years of Amsterdam Pride! The internationally renowned Amsterdam Pride returns to the Dutch capital for nine days of parties, films, exhibitions, debates and other activities.
