Pride FM News · 13 November 2026

Barcelona has been chosen to host WorldPride 2030, beating Bangkok in a vote by InterPride members in Phuket, Thailand. The city won 84 per cent of the vote. Celebrations will run from 28 June to 28 July 2030, marking 25 years since Spain legalised same-sex marriage. Pride Barcelona spent more than two years on the bid, backed by the city council, the Catalan government, Spain's equality ministry and more than 40 queer organisations. Spain last hosted WorldPride in Madrid in 2017. Amsterdam hosted this year's event, and Cape Town becomes the first African city to host, in 2028.
