They are widely considered to constitute the most important event leading to the gay liberation movement and the modern fight for LGBT rights in the United States and then in the world. The Stonewall riots were a series of spontaneous and violent demonstrations by members of the gay (LGBT) community against a police raid that began in the early morning hours of June 28th, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn bar in the Greenwich Village in New York. And this year, the Berlin Gay Pride celebrations will be even more especial: It’s the 50th anniversary of the New York Stonewall riots of June 28th, 1969, that launched the gay rights movement. There is no question that Berlin is one of the friendliest LGBTQ+ cities in Europe. Enjoy the Berlin Gay Pride (CSD) and our guide to the events and best parties! It’s Berlin Gay Pride Time!
