What you’ll find during the week

Workshops

Workshops are the most direct way to take part. They often happen in smaller groups, where you learn, create, or simply share experiences with people who understand. Some may require registration, so check the instructions in the official schedule.

Screenings

Screenings bring queer stories to the screen, and sometimes a conversation follows the film. If you like cinema, they’re one of the most relaxed ways to get into the mood of the week.

Discussions

Discussions bring community-related topics to the table. This year, with the theme “Break the Code,” expect plenty of conversation about binary stereotypes and how we leave them behind. We explain what the theme means in “Break the Code”: what this year’s theme means.

Music

Music ties the week together and peaks with the closing concert at the White Tower on Saturday. The names and times are announced by the organizers.

Saturday 20 June: parade and closing concert

Saturday is the big day. The parade starts at 18:30 and moves along the seafront until 21:00. After that, the celebration continues with the closing concert at the White Tower.

Arrive early, bring water, and arrange a meeting point with your friends. For where to stand and how to get back afterward, see the guide to the parade route on 20 June. If it’s your first time, read your first Pride: what to know too.

How to build your own day-by-day plan

Six days are a lot to experience at full speed, especially if you’re working or studying for exams. A simple plan that works:

  1. Monday 15: open the official schedule and mark two or three events that genuinely catch your eye. Send it to your friends.
  2. Tuesday 16 – Thursday 18: one event a day is enough. A workshop, a screening, or a discussion, and then a walk or a drink in the center.
  3. Friday 19: a night for dancing, but not until morning. You’ll need energy tomorrow.
  4. Saturday 20, morning and afternoon: rest, food, water, clothes, and glitter. Charge your phone and power bank.
  5. Saturday 20, 18:30 and after: parade on the seafront, concert at the White Tower, and then the night.

If you’re coming from another city, book accommodation early, because Pride week brings a lot of people to the center. Our guide on where to stay in Thessaloniki for nightlife helps you choose an area, and Thessaloniki without a car shows you how to move from event to event without looking for parking.

You don’t need to be everywhere. Pride isn’t measured in events you “checked off,” but in moments when you felt like you belonged.

The week’s nights at Enola

Enola is open every day from 23:30, so every night of Pride week you have somewhere to end up after a screening or a discussion. We announce our special nights for the week on Enola’s channels and collect them in Enola Pride Week 2026. During Pride week, opening hours may change for special events, and any changes are announced in our schedule.

For a regular visit, you don’t need a reservation. If you’re coming as a big group, contact the Enola team in advance. You’ll find us at Valaoritou 19, on the 2nd floor, a few minutes’ walk from the “Venizelou” metro stop.
