Mark your calendars—Pride PH is bringing back its annual Love Laban Pride March and Festival! LOV3LABAN 2025 is set for June 28, 2025 (Saturday), with hints pointing to Quezon Memorial Circle as the venue, though an official announcement is still pending.
A Platform for Visibility and Advocacy
Pride events in the Philippines go beyond celebration; they stand as a powerful statement for LGBTQIA+ rights. These gatherings foster a sense of belonging, amplify voices, and push for inclusivity and equality. Pride PH reinforced this message with an enthusiastic social media post: “IZZNOT A PRANK! Mas MATAPANG at mas MASAYANG LABAN para sa LOVE! PUKSAAN NA!”
Reflecting on Love Laban 2 Everyone 2024
Last year’s Love Laban 2 Everyone drew an astounding 228,000 attendees at Quezon City Memorial Circle. The festival featured a vibrant mix of performances, community discussions, and solidarity. However, the evening concert had to be canceled due to heavy rains and electrical concerns. In response, Pride PH hosted a thanksgiving event on June 30, 2024, to acknowledge the overwhelming support from the community.
What’s in Store for 2025?
With each year, Pride PH aims to make the festival bigger, safer, and more inclusive. Expect an exciting mix of parades, speeches, performances, and community activities, all centered on advocacy and celebration. Given past challenges, organizers are likely to introduce better contingency plans to ensure a smooth experience for attendees.
More details on the venue, lineup, and activities will be announced soon on their page. Stay tuned and get ready to march with pride at LOV3LABAN 2025!
