This Wednesday marks the start of the much-anticipated 10 Days of Pride week in Brussels, and what better way to launch the festivities than with Mini Pride? The event is being organized by the associations, federations, visit.brussels, the partners of Brussels Pride, and the College and City Council of the City of Brussels.
March from the Mannekenpis through the Rainbow Village.
Starting with a reception, participants will then have the opportunity to carry the big rainbow flag through the streets of Brussels, starting from the iconic Manneken Pis. The famous statue will be decked out in a fabulous Pride costume for the occasion. The march will also make a stop at Grands Carmes before continuing through the vibrant Rainbow Village (Quartier Saint-Jacques) and culminating at the RainbowHouse Brussels.
The Kick-Off 2023 is set to be a celebration of diversity, inclusivity, and love. It is a chance for individuals to unite and show their support for the LGBTQIA+ community while promoting equality and acceptance for all.
If you want to learn more about the Kick-Off 2023 and how to get involved, make sure to check out the official website and social media channels of the organizers. Get ready to kick-off Pride week in style and make a difference for the LGBTQIA+ community!
