SP LGBT+ Parade celebrates three decades in support of inclusion and diversity

The 30th São Paulo LGBT+ Parade took place this Sunday (7), in the capital of São Paulo, bringing together thousands of people on Avenida Paulista. The street, which is a symbol of São Paulo, was filled with colorful flags, messages of inclusion, electric trios and music.

The event has a historic role in social mobilization, drawing attention to issues related to combating discrimination, access to healthcare, inclusion in the job market and guaranteeing rights for the LGBT+ population.

On the streets it was possible to see a great diversity of people of all ages, such as in the "Trans Children Exist" march, which brought together children and those responsible for the rights of trans people already in childhood.

The Parade was divided into electric trios with great musical attractions, which drew the public to the sound of Gloria Groove, Pabllo Vittar, Pepita, Luísa Sonza, Urias, Melody and more. In an interview with CNN Brasil, the voice of "Vermelho" said that being in the LGBT+ Parade is fulfilling a dream that fills her with pride: "I think being a symbol of resistance, of freedom, of art, of confidence. It fills me with such a huge feeling. Being able to be a mirror for these people, as they are for me, means the world."

In support of the event, famous trios such as Carmo Dalla Vequia, Kenya Sade, Marcella McGowan, Luis Lobiancos and more celebrities participated.

The event is APOLGBT-SP (Organized by the São Paulo LGBT Pride Parade Association) and is considered the largest LGBTQIAP+ Parade in the world.
