We want Pride to be for everyone.

• Pride Park, in Yumbo square, is an open and flat space, accessible with a wheelchair.
• If you need assistance or an accessible point, speak to any member of the organization team: they are identified and there to help you.
• If you come with a specific need and prefer to organize it beforehand, write to us in advance and we will prepare it with you.
• At day parties and pool parties, accessibility depends on the venue: consult us before buying if you have doubts.

Pride lasts seven days and is best enjoyed with a clear head.

• Hydrate and protect yourself from the sun: water, a cap, and sunscreen are your best allies, especially at daytime parties.
• Consent is non-negotiable. Respect the space, body, and boundaries of other people.
• Protect your ears and take breaks: the party is long and is best enjoyed with rests.
• Use the bins and recycling points: let's leave the space better than we found it.
• In case of any incident, look for security or organization staff, who will be identified.

A better Pride is also a Pride that is more careful with the island that hosts it. These tips come from previous editions and are still valid.
