Nuuk Pride

Nuuk Pride is an LGBT festival which is held every June in Nuuk, Greenland. A colourful and festive occasion, it combines political issues with concerts, films and a parade and different arrangements. The focal point is Katuaq in the city centre. It usually opens on the day of the Pride arrangement, culminating with a parade. The first time the pride was held, some 1,000 gay, lesbian, transgender and bisexual people and supporters took part in the parade with floats and flags.[1]

History
