Zagreb Pride is the annual gay pride festival of Zagreb, Croatia, which first took place in 2002 and now occurs in June (the Saturday closest to June 27) of each year, lasting for a few days. It is organised by (Zagreb) Pride Committee that is formed in January of the new Pride year. Pride Committee is a group of individuals and it is logistically supported by various human rights and LGBTIQ groups. Pride receives funding from the City of Zagreb, as well as a number of international human rights organisations and embassies.The event usually consists of a 40-minute Pride March through the city center with banners, flags, and shouted slogans, followed by a gathering at Zrinjevac Park where speeches are given by LGBTIQ activists. In some years "pre-program" events are held in the days leading up to the march. Each year the organizers adopt a theme and a collection of principles and values called the "Pride platform", which is designed to be reflected in the march, speeches, and publicity for the event.
