Tens of thousands defy Orban's ban at Budapest Pride 2025

 


Over 50,000 people marched at Budapest Pride 2025 to protest Hungarian’s anti-LGBTQ+ laws. All of them proved that the spirit of Pride is still alive in Hungary as they turned out to march at Budapest’s 30th annual Pride event despite Orban's ban.

The participants came together to celebrate Budapest Pride against the backdrop of an increasingly hostile legislative environment for LGBTQ+ citizens in Hungary, under Orban regime.

Most of the European countries support the Budapest Pride and stand for members of the LGBTQ+ community and their rights to equality and non-discrimination, freedom of expression and peaceful assembly, and freedom from violence.

The European Commission decided to refer Hungary to the Court of Justice of the EU over a Hungarian law which discriminates against people on the basis of their sexual orientation and gender identity. We expect the ruling this year.

We stand with Hungary!!!
