About this Event
The Campi Flegrei, the volcanic stretch of coast west of Naples, get their own Pride, and the march is in Bacoli.
It was built in open assemblies held around the area rather than by a single association, with collectives, local groups, political organisations and residents writing the platform together. Two themes came out of them. One is the outlying neighbourhoods: the organisers want them treated as communities in their own right, and they name violence and the camorra as what stands in the way. The other is visibility, set out as a refusal to let anyone be pushed out of public space, with young people, women who have survived violence, and neurodivergent and disabled people named alongside the LGBTQIA+ community.
The organisers describe it as intersectional and rooted in the towns it comes from, which in this corner of the bay means Bacoli, Pozzuoli, Quarto and Monte di Procida rather than the city next door.
