Edition under the theme «Where culture is sown, freedom flourishes», with the manifesto read by Satín Greco (winner of Drag Race España) on 4 June at the Pablo Ruiz Picasso Cultural Centre. Nearly two weeks (26 May → 6 Jun) strung together LGBTQI+ cinema, exhibitions, sport, the High Heel Race and free concerts with Miss Caffeina, Agoney and Alba Reche. Saturday 6 June's parade (City Hall → Pablo Ruiz Picasso Cultural Centre) gathered over twenty floats and a dozen associations, with La Nogalera as the scene's epicentre.
Practical tips
for experiencing Torremolinos Gay Pride
The practical stuff so Pride week works — arrival, accommodation, transport and what to bring.
Arrive Wednesday · leave Monday
The Pride core runs from Thursday to Sunday. Arriving Wednesday gives you a day to acclimate before the rush. Book at least 3 months ahead — the best hotels are gone by April.
Close to the route · 0-10 min walking
Hotels near the route are gold during Pride — you can walk back without fighting for a taxi. Prices rise +30-50% that week.
Plane + public transport
Urban airports usually have a metro or commuter train direct to the center. Taxi/Uber/Cabify run all night. High-speed rail is competitive for distances <3h.
Extended metro · streets closed
Many metro systems run 24h on Pride weekend. The route streets are closed to traffic — taxis don't enter. Walking is usually fastest.
Heat · shade · water · comfy shoes
European summer in the street: cap, sunglasses, SPF 50, reusable water bottle. Closed shoes for the march — stepping on toes is real.
Reinforced health services
Temporary health stations are usually set up in central squares during Pride. STI/PrEP centers often extend hours. EU: EHIC covers emergencies. Other: private insurance recommended.
