LGBTQIA+ Pride Parade in Goiânia

Overview

In early September 2026, organizers of the 31st LGBTQIA+ Pride Parade in Goiânia, Brazil, announced plans to use the event as a platform for political pressure ahead of the 2026 general elections. The parade’s theme, “Nothing about us without us – Transforming visibility into representation,” addressed concerns regarding a rise in conservative movements and approximately 400 anti-LGBTQIA+ bills moving through Brazilian legislative chambers.

On September 13, the parade took place at Praça Cívica, featuring cultural programming and citizenship services. Security forces estimated that roughly 30,000 people participated in the march. Marcos Silvério, president of the Association of the LGBTQIA+ Pride Parade of Goiás, noted that the movement seeks to encourage community engagement in decision-making spaces to counter a perceived hostile legislative environment.
