Berlin Canal Pride

July 25, 2024

It's the summer highlight of Berlin Pride Week: Canal Pride is a LGBTQ* party tour with several ships across the Spree River.

Just two days before Berlin's Pride Weekend and the Christopher Street Day, a unique sightseeing and party tour starts on the Spree River. On boats sponsored by different associations, gay clubs and institutions, top DJs and entertainers take control and get participants in the mood for the Pride season. On their way, the boats pass many Berlin landmarks such as the legendary Reichstag, and thus set a symbol for tolerance and openness in the German capital.

Afterparty at Osthafen

In 2024, the Berlin Canal Pride will take place for the 18th time. The participating party boats are organized by many actors of the Berlin queer nightlife scene. Traditionally, there is a boat by the gay party GMF, a boat by the lesbian party L-Tunes, as well as one by the gay and lesbian club SchwuZ. After the end of the boat parade, the party will continue with an afterparty at Berlin's Osthafen. The right atmosphere will be provided there by DJs such as star drag queen Katie Bähm, DJ Francis from SchwuZ and Paul Pailette.
