Madrid Orgullo (Madrid Pride) is one of the world's largest Pride celebrations, drawing over two million people to the Spanish capital each year. The main parade runs along Paseo del Prado and Paseo de la Castellana, typically on the first Saturday of July. Chueca — Madrid's vibrant gay neighbourhood — hosts a week of parties, concerts, and events throughout Orgullo week.
Madrid Orgullo 2026 runs from 25 June to 5 July — ten days of events centred on the Chueca neighbourhood. The main Pride Parade takes place on Saturday 4 July at 19:00, marching from Atocha to Colón through central Madrid. The VIII Madrid Summit, an international LGBTQ+ human rights conference, takes place on Friday 3 July at the offices of the European Parliament and European Commission in Spain. The street festival and parade are free to attend. Orgullo attracts over two million visitors, making it one of the biggest Pride events in the world.
