The gathering will take place in the Ledra Palace UN-administered buffer zone, a symbolic space of encounter and coexistence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At a time when global and regional tensions continue to fuel injustice, repression, and political stagnation, <strong>United by Pride 2025 stands as a beacon of hope and resilience<\/strong>. Its mission is clear: to promote multicultural coexistence, to place human rights and tolerance at the forefront, and to affirm that <em>we are still here, and we are still marching for peace, reunification, queer liberation, and collective justice.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Staying true to its roots, the Pride will feature <strong>two parallel marches<\/strong>, departing at 18:00 from <strong>Eleftheria Square<\/strong> and <strong>Ku\u011fulu Park<\/strong> on both sides of the divide. The marches will converge at the <strong>Ledra Palace Buffer Zone<\/strong>, a place where the island\u2019s communities will stand together in unity no matter where on the island we live to protest, to celebrate, and to reaffirm their shared commitment to equality and justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year\u2019s program includes <strong>live performances, a full stage show with dedicated hosts, DJ sets, and a live band<\/strong>, alongside a series of pre-Pride events in the days leading up to the main march.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than a celebration, <strong>United by Pride is a space of politics, joy, memory, and struggle<\/strong>. It is deeply rooted in the values of anti-racism, decolonisation, demilitarisation, self-determination, and grassroots organising. In a time of growing hardship and repression, our united presence across the divide sends a powerful and unmistakable message: <strong>change is possible and it is already in motion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DNVV6LLoct_\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\" title=\"\">more info here!<\/a><br>Thank you to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/santa_nomeni?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&amp;igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==\" title=\"\">@santa_nomeni<\/a> for the design and graphics! \ud83c\udfa8<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/queercollective.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/UBP-POST-1-819x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4355\" style=\"width:354px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/queercollective.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/UBP-POST-1-819x1024.png 819w, https:\/\/queercollective.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/UBP-POST-1-scaled-600x750.png 600w, https:\/\/queercollective.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/UBP-POST-1-240x300.png 240w, https:\/\/queercollective.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/UBP-POST-1-scaled.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\uddd3SAT 27\/09\/25\ud83d\udd6318:00\ud83d\udccdParallel Marches from Eleutheria Square &amp; Kugulu Park to Ledra Palace Buffer Zone!
