Bari Pride 2026

Bari Pride is the principal LGBTQ+ event for Puglia, drawing participants from across the region including Lecce, Taranto, Foggia and the coastal towns. The march routes through the city centre from Piazza Umberto I to the waterfront. Expected attendance: 8,000–15,000. The event is organised by Arcigay Bari and has grown significantly over the past decade as the city has developed as a tourism and university destination. The backdrop — the Adriatic, the old town walls, the Basilica di San Nicola — is one of the most distinctive Pride settings in the south.
