About this Event
Bremen's Christopher Street Day is a demonstration first and a street party second. The procession forms up at the Altenwall beside the city library, works along the Wall to the main station and comes back through the centre, finishing between the Kunsthalle and the Theater am Goetheplatz.
That end point is where the day settles. Two stages run there, one given over to queer performers and one to the wider solidarity programme, with speeches, food stalls and information stands from the groups taking part. More than fifty clubs, initiatives, unions, parties and community organisations register blocks and floats, and the turnout runs into the tens of thousands.
The motto for this edition is 'Generationen voller Pride, gluecklich, sichtbar, stark', and the line-up is built around it, with the programme deliberately mixing older and younger voices rather than splitting them.
