Baltic Pride Tallinn

Baltic Pride is the shared Pride of the three Baltic states, rotating annually between Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius. Tallinn hosted the 2026 edition on June 1-7 under the message "Silence won't defeat hate", closing with a parade through the city centre on June 6 that filled the streets around the Old Town with flags and several thousand marchers. Pride week mixes a human-rights conference, exhibitions, film screenings, parties at the city's queer venues and the Saturday march. Estonia is the most LGBTQ-friendly of the Baltic states - same-sex marriage has been legal here since January 2024 - and the Tallinn editions are the largest and most relaxed of the rotation. Tallinn next hosts in 2029; in between, the celebration moves to Riga (2027) and Vilnius (2028).
