Many Pride Marches have had to be canceled or postponed worldwide due to the new coronavirus pandemic, but the LGBT community (lesbians, gays, bis and trans) is still planning many online gay festivities on Saturday 2020.

A “Global Pride” promises to bring the spirit of the event to life, with a special party broadcast live on the internet for 24 hours. The organizers, who bring together officials from several pride markets around the world, hope to bring together several hundred million people at their computers.

Kick-off was at 6:00 a.m. London time. The marathon event is presented by singer and drag queen Todrick Hall, made famous by American Idol. Among the headliners, pop singers Kesha and Ava Max, but also political guests like Carlos Alvarado, the president of Costa Rica, a country that has just legalized gay marriage.

This forced switch to online festivities also represents an opportunity for organizers, who hope to reach a more diverse audience, in dozens of countries where homosexuality remains illegal and punishable by law.

In France, the Paris Pride March has been postponed to November 7, according to Inter-LGBT, which organizes it. But Têtu magazine and several associations also offer an online alternative on Saturday, entitled “Fièr.es et Têtu”. The event, which is to mix DJs and round tables, will start at 12:00 p.m. Paris time.

Declined in several events in multiple countries, the Pride March is a manifestation of the LGBT movement intended to give more visibility to gay, lesbian, bis and trans people in their fight for equal rights.
