Annual Prague Pride march to take place on August 13

Prague's gay pride march, Prague Pride, is due to take place on 13 August after a two-year break caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the organizers announced on Saturday.

The march, which has been taking place annually since 2011, will be the closing event of the week-long LGBT Festival that starts on 8 August. Some 20,000 people are expected to take part this year.

In addition to the gay pride march, the twelfth edition of the Prague Pride festival will offer around 150 events, including concerts, workshops, debates and theatre performances.
