Artists will perform there and personalities will speak.

The first edition of the event took place in 2019. The health crisis linked to the coronavirus subsequently prevented the holding of an annual march.

40 volunteers worked on the organization of the Pride des Banlieues 2022 and 150 people will contribute to its smooth running.

Dozens of communities and associations are also involved.

In 2019, the theme of the march was "breaking out of invisibility".

Three years later, the demands relate to housing.

“We are asking for the creation of 10,000 emergency accommodation places and for there to be more people trained in the reception of LGBTQI + people”, explained spokesperson Yanis Khames.
