Baltic Pride 2026: Tallinn, Estonia

Dates and details about Baltic Pride 2026 are still TBC.

Baltic Pride is the leading LGBTQ+ celebration shared among the three Baltic capitals — Vilnius (Lithuania), Riga (Latvia), and Tallinn (Estonia) — rotating each year between them. In 2026, the festival will return to Tallinn, Estonia’s vibrant capital, bringing together thousands of participants from across the region and beyond.

While dates and other information about the 2026 edition are still under wraps, we've outlined what you can expect based on past Baltic Pride events.

Baltic Pride March

The March for Equality is the highlight of Baltic Pride, bringing color and energy to the streets of the host city. In previous years, tens of thousands have joined the march, followed by open-air concerts, speeches, and afterparties that carry the celebration well into the night.

Events at Baltic Pride

Baltic Pride also includes the Pride for Progress conference, which gathers activists, policymakers, and business leaders to discuss equality, visibility, and workplace inclusion throughout the Baltic region.

In 2026, as Tallinn hosts Baltic Pride, the city will once again become a stage for solidarity, pride, and progress, continuing a tradition that unites three nations under one shared banner of LGBTQ+ equality.

Baltic Pride History

This rotating pride festival represents a powerful collaboration between three national LGBTQ+ organizations: the Lithuanian Gay League (LGL), Latvia's organization Mozaīka, and the Estonian LGBT Association. What began in 2009 as a modest gathering has evolved into an important regional event that brings together thousands of participants from across the Baltic states and beyond, serving as both a celebration and a platform for advancing equal rights.
