5,000+ people and a 2-hour march
The KyivPride march took place under the slogan «Our Families Are Part of Ukraine» and drew three times as many people as the previous year. The march set off from the Red Building of Kyiv National University to the «Ploshcha Ukrayins’kykh Heroiv» metro station.
Twelve embassies and 10 international organizations were also present at the march.
People joined the Ukrainian processions in Copenhagen, Montreal, Stockholm, Amsterdam, Budapest, Munich, Stuttgart, and Mannheim.
The March drew 7,000+ people
Representatives of foreign embassies were in attendance, including Tobias Tiberg, the Swedish Ambassador to Ukraine, as well as members of the Verkhovna Rada and the Kyiv City Council.

Among them were: a march of LGBT+ service members led by Viktor Pylypenko, a march of LGBTIQ+ people with disabilities, a march of parents of LGBTIQ+ children, the Public Health Center of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, and others.
8,000+ people and 30+ columns
Participants in the Equality March included MEP Rebecca Harms, German Minister for Europe Michael Roth, Ukrainian lawmakers Serhiy Leshchenko and Svitlana Zalishchuk, Canadian Ambassador to Ukraine Roman Waschuk, and U.S. Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch.
5 000+ people
Among them are Roman Vashchuk, the Canadian ambassador; Judith Gough, the British ambassador; Rebecca Harms, a member of the European Parliament; and Maksym Nefyodov, Ukraine’s first deputy minister of economy.
3000+ people
The march was organized for the first time in the city center—with restricted but not completely closed access (according to official documents, via metal detectors).
1500+ people
For three years in a row, we tried to hold the Equality March.
Meanwhile, the homophobes were diligent—in 2013, the city administration received 500 letters from the public and a letter signed by 61 members of parliament demanding that the March
be banned.
The homophobes threatened to attack the participants if the event went ahead.
That’s why the police refused to grant us a permit.

The March took place in Kyiv
for the first time
Dozens of homophobes threw firecrackers and smoke bombs at the march participants.
One police officer guarding the event suffered a shrapnel wound to the neck.
We launched a fundraiser to help the injured law enforcement officers:
we raised 18,000 hryvnias in one day.
The following groups participated in the march: LGBTQ+ military personnel, representatives of the EU and the Council of Europe, and embassies of Canada, the United Kingdom, Denmark, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Germany, Austria, Sweden, Ireland, Norway, Lithuania, Estonia, Spain, Italy, France, and other countries around the world.
1,500+ people and a 1+ hour march
Due to safety concerns, the march in Kyiv was not held; instead, participants joined (and organized their own) processions as part of Pride events around the world—including
in Liverpool, Stockholm, Madrid, Helsinki, and Vilnius.
