Events, exhibitions, conferences, recitals and other shows in favor of the movement take over the city. In addition, this year is the best possible continuation of the events that Seville has hosted during the month of May. This is the case of the seventh edition of El FOC, Festival Cultura con Orgullo or the party against LGTBIphobia.
In this case, the march for LGTBIQ+ rights has a total of 18 floats that cross the entire city. Some of the most important points through which the route passes are the Ossuary Gate, Trajan Street and the Metropol Parasol (Las Setas), culminating in the famous Alameda de Hercules.
