Budapest Pride went ahead on June 28 in defiance of a government ban, drawing the backing of more than 70 members of the European Parliament and several prominent European ministers, who travelled to the Hungarian capital to show their support for the LGBTQ+ community.

More than 180,000 protesters took over the streets of Budapest, many saying they marched not just for LGBTQ rights but in opposition to what they see as an increasingly authoritarian government.
