For the first time in the history of Berlin Pride, a two-day stage programme awaits you at the Brandenburg Gate. Over two days we celebrate the diversity of our community – with music, political contributions, culture and international guests.
Under this year’s motto “Haltung ist hot.” (Taking a stand is hot.) we show together that queer visibility, democracy and solidarity are inseparably connected.
Friday, 24 July – Democracy Evening
Berlin Pride opens in the spirit of our democracy.
Hosted by Fabian Grischkat and Barbie Breakout
From 6 pm we invite you to an evening that brings together politics, culture and music. Together with guests from politics, civil society and the community, we talk about why democracy is our strongest answer to hate and exclusion right now.
Because Haltung ist hot also means: go and vote, take responsibility and stand up together for an open society.

For their outstanding contribution to greater lesbian visibility in public space.
With their music and their social commitment, the two have moved people for decades.

More than a stage programme
Our stages are places of encounter, of culture and of political participation. This is where we dance, discuss, celebrate and show attitude.
Whether pop, electro, drag, political talks or community programme – we want to create a space where everyone feels welcome and where together we send a strong signal for freedom, diversity and democracy.
