Buenos Aires Pride March Draws Thousands, Closes With Calls to Repeal DNUs 61 and 62

Organizers framed the 34th annual event as a defense of trans rights under recent Milei decrees.

Overview

  • The march moved from Plaza de Mayo to Congress under the slogan “Frente al odio y la violencia, más orgullo y unidad.”
  • Organizers demanded repeal of DNUs 61/62/2025, arguing the measures restrict access to health care for trans people and limit gender identity recognition in detention.
  • The closing events at Congress included reading a political document with calls for reparations for travestis and trans older adults and stronger responses to hate crimes.
  • City authorities enforced street closures from 06:00 Saturday to 04:00 Sunday across Balvanera, Montserrat and San Nicolás, as organizers provided CEPA/ARDA-trained volunteers, hydration points and portable toilets.
  • Tributes included a homage to Diana Sacayán and a pañuelazo with Madres y Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo, CELS and H.I.J.O.S., while thousands attended alongside more than 60 participating organizations with concerts and performances.
