Thousands take to Berlin’s streets for the LGBT parade on Christopher Street Day on Saturday, July 24. The parade is expected to gather more than 20,000 participants - a low number in comparison to previous editions, due to the pandemic. An annual reminder of LGBTQ ’s rights, the parade will focus on demands such as the simplification of first names and changes in civil status for transsexual people and on the abolition of blood donation ban for gays, bisexuals and transsexuals, among other topics. Five trucks, more than 70 organisations, and groups on bicycles and rickshaws are expected to move through the German capital’s city centre.
