The Pride Walk is the centrepiece of Maspalomas Pride — a colourful parade through the resort that draws tens of thousands of participants and spectators each year.
The week is packed with events: pool parties at major resort hotels, open-air stages at the Yumbo Centre featuring drag performances and DJs, beach parties, and dedicated nights at the gay clubs. Tickets for the larger events sell out — book early via maspalomaspride.com.
Accommodation in Maspalomas and Playa del Inglés books out well in advance for Pride week. Hotels with pools in the Yumbo Centre area are the most central. May weather is warm and sunny — typically 22–25°C.
Maspalomas Pride 2026 runs 4–10 May at Gran Canaria. The week features pool parties at resort hotels, the official Pride Walk parade (usually Saturday), open-air stages at the Yumbo Centre, beach parties, and a closing party. Check maspalomaspride.com for the full programme and event tickets.
