Billede genereret af AI

On Saturday, November 1, 2025, thousands of people and over 60 LGBTIQ+ organizations gathered in Plaza de Mayo for the 34th Pride March, under the slogan 'Against hate and violence, more pride and unity'. The march headed to Congress at 4 p.m., demanding the repeal of decrees limiting rights and defending diversity. Artists like Dua Lipa and Ángela Torres supported the event with messages and performances.

The 34th edition of the LGBTIQ+ Pride March took place on November 1, 2025, in Buenos Aires, honoring the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York, which marked the start of the modern movement for sexual diversity rights. Since 1992, the march has been held every first Saturday in November. This year, over 60 social organizations and LGBTIQ+ collectives participated under the slogan 'Against hate and violence, more pride and unity', responding to hate speech and symbolic violence, including President Javier Milei's January 2025 Davos statement equating homosexuality with pedophilia.

From 10 a.m., Plaza de Mayo and the Paseo de la Diversidad y la Resistencia on Diagonal Norte and Florida filled with fairs, shows, performances, and stands from cultural, anti-racist, and human rights organizations. The main column departed at 4 p.m. toward Congress, with flags, glitter, music, and slogans like 'Enough lies and stigmatization of trans children and youth' and 'Access to hormones and inhibitors'.

Demands included historical reparations for travesti and trans elderly people, repeal of DNU 61 and 62/2025 restricting hormone treatments for trans adolescents and gender identity in prisons, reopening of INADI, fulfillment of the travesti-trans labor quota, implementation of Comprehensive Sexual Education, and justice for the transfemicide of Sofía Fernández. Reports indicate more physical attacks on diversity in the first six months of 2025 than all of 2024.

National and international artists animated the day. After her concert, Ángela Torres said: 'What joy to be here, I love you so much. The best day of the year.' Lizy Tagliani stated: 'It was a very difficult year, they tried to attribute the most heinous crimes to me because I'm trans. I wish you lots of love, work, peace, and above all good equality.' Dua Lipa sent a video: 'Hello, my beautiful Argentina. Today I want to celebrate with you and send all my love and support on this special day. I'll always be by your side, accompanying you with all my pride and affection'.

Among the emotional moments, there was a tribute to Diana Sacayán on the tenth anniversary of her travesticide and a pañuelazo for Memory, Truth, and Justice with Mothers and Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo, H.I.J.O.S. Capital, and Taty Almeida. The closing was at 6 p.m. at the Carlos Jáuregui Stage in front of Congress, with speeches, recognitions, and performances by Sudor Marika, Aimel Sali, and others, also honoring Carlos Jáuregui, promoter of Argentina's first pride marches.

The Historic Line Organizing Commission stated: 'Pride triumphs every time we assume our identities, when we reject the mandate of shame, when we freely express our sexual orientations and gender identities in the public sphere.' This was the second major march of the year, after the Federal Antifascist and Antiracist Pride March on February 1.
