Three Weeks of Diversity in Nuremberg

The CSD Nürnberg Pride is one of the most significant large-scale queer events in Bavaria. Throughout the so-called Prideweeks, the community takes over the public spaces of the city in the district-equivalent urban district of Nuremberg with a dense programme of politics, culture, parties, and encounters.

Motto NÜRNBERG LIEBT

The motto for the 2026 edition is "NÜRNBERG LIEBT" (Nuremberg Loves) and stands for solidarity, community, and mutual recognition. More than 100 individual events are spread across the approximately three weeks of the Prideweeks: readings, discussion rounds, workshops, exhibitions, concerts, and parties.

Demonstration and Finale

The political and emotional centrepiece is the large CSD demonstration, which winds its way through Nuremberg's city centre. The two-day finale takes place at Kornmarkt, where a stage programme combines the community's demands with live performances. The Together Party rounds off the weekend.

Commitment and Organisers

The organiser is the non-profit Förderverein Christopher-Street-Day Nürnberg e.V. The festival thrives on the voluntary commitment of numerous helpers and the support of over 30 sponsors, including major employers in the region and the city of Nuremberg. Those who want to get involved can register as volunteers, become members, participate in the demonstration, or register their own events during the Prideweeks.

Significance for the Region

With its broad programme, CSD Nürnberg Pride is much more than a demonstration: it is a cultural showcase for queer life in Middle Franconia and an attraction for visitors from all over Northern Bavaria.
