Prague Pride
Prague Pride has grown from a small gathering into Central Europe's premier Pride festival — a week of events culminating in a major parade through the city's historic centre. The Czech capital's extraordinary architecture provides a unique backdrop for what has become one of Eastern Europe's most significant LGBTQ+ events.
The Parade
The Prague Pride parade marches through the city centre in August, drawing tens of thousands of participants and spectators. The festival has a strong political dimension — Czech Pride events have historically been significant in advocating for LGBTQ+ rights in the region.
Prague in August
August in Prague is warm (around 23°C) and one of the busiest tourist months — book accommodation well in advance. The Old Town, Charles Bridge, and the castle are best visited early morning before the crowds. Pride week adds an extra layer of energy to an already buzzing city.
