The parade will start at 16:30 from Via Principe Eugenio / Corso San Martino cornerand the route’s details will be soon announced by the Coordinamento Torino Pride association.

Coordinamento Torino Pride has been active since 2006 and represents a vital network of associations committed to promoting rights and awareness of LGBTIQ+ community and allies. Besides organizing significant events such as the Turin Pride, the association also plays a key role in education and formation regarding LGBTIQ+ issues, joining forces with the City of Turin’s LGBT service and other institutions.

Over the last few years, Coordinamento Torino Pride has also distinguished itself for its activism in civic context, actively participating in the debate on social policies and for criticizing such laws that risk to further marginalize LGBTIQ+ couples and families.
