Saturday the streets of Copenhagen were filled with rainbow flags, dancing drag queens and big trucks with extravagant dress up themes. <\/p>\n
After a week of lectures, parties and events the week was finished off with the traditional Pride Parade, starting at Frederiksberg Town City Hall, terminating at the Copenhagen City Hall Square, leaving a colourful trail of confetti, champagne bottles and balloons all the way down Vesterbrogade street.<\/p>\n
The University of Copenhagen was present to celebrate and represent an institution open to diversity, equality and love. And the Studenterhuset caf\u00e9 organised a big truck filled with happy young students, covered in glitter, waving the Pride flags. After the truck was an impressive long train of more students.<\/p>\n
The University of Copenhagen was one of the biggest institutions present.<\/p>\n
Other organisations and institutions such as Folketeatret N\u00f8rregade (These are for example the photos of the man posing with his leg up on the truck in a green dress and a blonde wig!!), B\u00f8ssehuset (The Asian and the guy in a green dress kissing were from this organization) and LGBT Asylum (The guy holding up the sign saying The Fight Is Not Done Yet) were also walking in the parade.<\/p>\n
All celebrating the freedom to love who you want.<\/p>\n
