Gozo Pride is returning this September for its fifth consecutive edition, featuring a two-week schedule of community activities across the island.

Organised by the advocacy group LGBTI+ Gozo, this year's programme is held under the banner 'Pride Without Permission'. The theme focuses on visibility, equality, and civic participation within the community.

The annual event forms part of wider national and regional activities celebrating diversity and advocating for civil rights across Malta and Gozo.
