The 18th edition of Sofia Pride is taking place in Sofia today under the motto: We are people, not propaganda, a reminder that behind every story, identity and cause there are real people – with their feelings, their families, friends, pursuit of happiness and their right to a life of dignity.
The participants in Sofia Pride will get together in Alexander I Battenberg Square, and at 4 PM, will start out on their procession through the central streets of Sofia, after which they will go back to the square, where a big concert is planned for 5.30 PM with the participation of popular Bulgarian performers. The event is supported by the Bulgarian Fund for Women, the embassies of Australia, Great Britain and Canada.
In the evening, the opponents of the Pride will, as usual, organize a Family March – in Sofia, Plovdiv and Varna. In Sofia the march will start at 6 PM from St. Nedelya Square.
