Athens Gay Pride

Athens Pride is the main LGBTQ community annual celebration in Greece. The event has been held since 2005 in city centre and has a unique Greek party atmosphere. There were other smaller pride events held on a small scale how ever since the mid 1980s.

The festivities start at 1700 on the Saturday with the parade with an official opening ceremony with the Athens Mayor, foreign diplomats and representatives of the Justice Ministry at 1900.

A concert then take place at Syntagma Square later in the evening and the main event of the pride weekend.
