Stuttgart's Christopher Street Day runs under the name Stuttgart PRIDE. The Saturday is the political core of it: a demonstration through the city centre followed by a rally.
Around it sits the Hocketse, the CSD street festival, which runs across the whole weekend and includes an information mile where queer groups, counselling services and clubs from the region set up their stalls. Hocketse is the Swabian word for a neighbourhood get-together, and the festival keeps that relaxed character.
The weekend closes a longer season. The CSD culture weeks fill the two weeks before it with readings, films, talks and parties across the city, and the city hall holds a reception for the community at their start. The motto, the route and the stage programme for 2027 have not been published yet.
