Hamburg Pride Parade under increased security measures

In Hamburg, Germany, on 1 August 2026, the Christopher Street Day Pride parade took place under increased security measures, one week after a deadly attack in Berlin. Around 300,000 people took part, according to France 24, Le Monde and Der Spiegel, and WELT reported a record turnout. Tagesschau described the procession as peaceful.

A survey reported by Die Zeit found that more than one in three people feel less safe after the Pride attack. Sky News reported that hundreds of thousands attended Pride events in the UK and mainland Europe after the deadly Berlin attack.
