BUDAPEST, HUNGARY - JUNE 28: Participants cross the Elisabeth Bridge during the Budapest Pride on June 28, 2025 in Budapest, Hungary. Early in 2025, Hungary passed a law restricting the freedom of assembly by connecting it to a previous law from 2021 prohibiting the public portrayal to children of 'divergence from self-identity corresponding to sex at birth, sex change or homosexuality'. Consequently, events such as Pride marches are illegal in the country. The LGBTQ+ community are defying the ban and holding their Pride event on the streets of Budapest.
