Many participants also expressed a desire for the state to recognize civil partnerships between same-sex individuals, as is the case in other countries. For the second year in a row, Bucharest Pride highlighted the urgent need for legal recognition and protection of all families, as reflected in this year's slogan, "We are ready".
From young to old, activists and supporters alike aimed to convey a powerful message of acceptance and equality.
Furthermore, a recent study conducted by Cult Research, cited by ACCEPT Association, indicates that Romanians are more open towards the LGBT community and believe that all families should be protected.
After marching for over an hour, participants stopped at Izvor Park, where they enjoyed an outdoor party.
