Info: On May 25, at 17:00 @ Reja, we march together in Tirana Pride for our unwavering belief that every individual deserves to live free and without fear in Albania. 🫂 We march to challenge the hatred that fails to defeat us and solidarity and courage with which we walk fearlessly through the streets of every city.

We march for the love and understanding that flourishes in our families, for the acceptance and support of our friends and allies, and for the inspiring hope that one day Albania will be the welcoming home of every person, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.

On May 25, we march in Tirana Pride more united than ever to declare with a powerful voice that our love knows no borders and that our cause will not cease to exist until every member of our community is free to live and love without fear or judgment.

Let us march forward, not only on May 25, but every day, with passion in our hearts and determination in our souls. Let us be the beacon of hope for those who are still searching for acceptance. And let us never forget that love will always triumph over hate.

We are proud, we are powerful and together we are unstoppable.✊️
