Pride Lüneburg 2025: Loud for diversity and visibility!

On Saturday, July 4th, 2025, Lüneburg will be the venue for an important demonstration: Pride Lüneburg has the motto “Never be quiet again!” and starts at 4:00 p.m. at Clamartpark. From there the parade moves on to the Kurpark, where a varied stage program with live music, speeches and information stands takes place from 5:30 p.m. This not only promotes the visibility of queer people, but also sends a strong signal for diversity, as [LüneburgAktuell](https://www.lueneburgaktuell.de/artikel/anders-sein-ist-gut–queere-gemeinschaft- Feiert/) reports.

The event has a clear focus: “We want to stand up for the rights and visibility of queer people,” explains the organizing team. Given the increasing hostility towards queer people, not least due to anti-queer violence in Lüneburg last year, the importance of this event is even greater. The organizers emphasize the importance of speaking loudly and visibly for equality and diversity.

Accessibility and support

Another notable feature of Pride Lüneburg is its accessibility. A sign language interpreter will be available during the stage program, and a barrier-free bus from Irro Reisen will accompany the demonstration. Open to everyone, regardless of gender, age or group affiliation, the event invites people to work together for an open and solidarity-based society, supported by the Federal Ministry of Education, Family, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth as part of the “Living Democracy!” program, as the wnm explains.

In addition to the central activities surrounding Pride Day, accompanying activities are also planned in the city to further spread the event's political message. The growing participation year after year shows that Lüneburgers are increasingly behind the queer community, which means a lot to the organizers.

Global challenges and local solidarity

The importance of such events is also clear in the international context. As countries like Iraq pass laws that impose heavy penalties on same-sex relationships, or Uganda threatens the death penalty for “serious homosexuality,” it is clear that significant challenges remain. Amnesty International highlights how LGBTI people experience violence, intimidation and discrimination in many regions of the world.

Nevertheless, there are also positive developments: countries like Namibia and Greece are making progress in recognizing the rights of LGBTI people. In this bright field of tensions and achievements, Pride Lüneburg is not only a celebration, but also an essential protest and a reminder that the rights of all people count.

Pride Lüneburg is more than just an event; it is a platform for dialogue and a call to society to actively combat discrimination. The organizers are already looking forward to a diverse and committed audience in July and invite everyone to become part of this important movement.
