What's new in 2025? A few highlights during Pride Groningen

This year a brand new Pride Main Stage will be built in Zwanestraat in Groningen and you can join Queer Tours through Groningen. There's also the Pride Election in The Social Hub again, of course. The Official Afterparty will take place in The Palace. And what would Pride be without a visit to Dorothy's Dragbar or gaybar De Prins (they are an all time inclusive community in Groningen)
