Capital Pride in Washington, DC will be celebrated this year from May 31 to June 9, 2024, with a grand opening party, the Pride Parade, and many concerts. This year not only has a special theme, but it also celebrates the 50th anniversary of World Pride with a ten-day LGBTQ+ event program.

The motto is: "Totally Radical" – this slogan is intended to remind us of the historical obstacles posed by politics and the future strengthening of tolerance in society. With decorations and styles reminiscent of the wild 70s, the appropriate party called "Riot!" kicks off, featuring a spectacular drag queen performance as well as a lineup of well-known drag performers and DJs.

Another highlight takes place the very next day, namely the famous Pride Parade, where more than 200 elaborately costumed groups, organizations, and colorfully decorated floats present themselves to the audience.

I'm sorry, but it seems there's a misunderstanding in your request. Could you please clarify what text you'd like translated?

The popular parade honors LGBTQ+ history as well as the development of LGBTQ+ neighborhoods in Washington, DC, while also remembering the origins and significance of the struggle for equality.

On June 9th, the Pride Festival will take place on the historic Pennsylvania Avenue, where vibrant dancing will be the focal point. Visitors can listen to live acts on three stages and taste delicious local food from over 300 vendors.

"The motto of Capital Pride 2024 celebrates the brave spirit, unwavering strength, and resilience that characterized the LGBTQ+ community during the 1980s and 90s," said Ryan Bos, Executive Director of the Capital Pride Alliance. "It's about unleashing our authenticity freely, breaking down barriers, and advocating for a world where everyone can live their truth without fear or discrimination."
