At a glance
- N1 examines the 25-year history of Belgrade Pride, from the violence surrounding its first march to its place in the city’s calendar today.
- The program asks what has changed since 2001 and what rights the LGBT+ community in Serbia is still seeking.
Twenty-five years ago, the first Belgrade Pride march was held under the slogan “There is room for all of us.” Instead of making room for diversity, the streets of Belgrade made room for violence, and the first Pride became known as the “Bloody Pride.”
A quarter of a century later, the same message remains: there is room for Pride on the streets of Belgrade. But is there room in Serbia for everything Pride is demanding?
N1 traces the journey from the “Bloody Pride” to a march that has become part of the city calendar. The struggle has moved from the right to assemble to the fight for equality before the law.
The program asks what has changed since 2001 and what the LGBT+ community is still fighting for. Tatjana Veselinović presents the live coverage from the streets of Belgrade during Belgrade Pride 2026.
There is room for all of us.
