Naples is preparing for a day of mobilization and pride with the second edition of Arrevutamm Pride , the self-organized and self-funded pride event that will enliven the streets of the city today, Saturday, June 20, 2026. A queer, transfeminist, anti-Zionist, anti-fascist, anti-capitalist, and decolonial event, built from the bottom up by the Neapolitan LGBTQIA+ community.
The meeting is set for 16:30 PM in Piazza Garibaldi , with the procession departing at 17:00 PM towards Piazza del Gesù . The organizers describe the day as "the largest day of struggle for the advancement of the material conditions of the LGBTQIA+ community in Naples."
A grassroots pride event, without sponsors
Born in 2025 from a political split with the official Naples Pride movement , Arrevutamm Pride presents itself as a living, fluid, and evolving political project. The collective advocates for a horizontal, self-funded organization free of commercial sponsorship, rejecting what it calls the "normalization" of the LGBTQIA+ movement.
Arrevutamm's political manifesto focuses on themes such as a critique of pinkwashing , the fight against Zionism, anti-racism, job insecurity, the right to housing and healthcare, and solidarity with the Palestinian cause. Pride explicitly defines itself as queer, trans-feminist, and anti-colonial, positioning itself in open opposition to institutional and commercial pride parades.
The name “Arrevutamm” (from the Neapolitan word meaning “let's revolt”) is already a program in itself: to overturn the logic of power, starting with the organization of the procession itself.
Two prides for one city
2026 confirms itself as a year of dual mobilization for Naples. While today the Arrevutamm Pride brightens the city, June 27th will be the turn of the official Naples Pride , celebrating the thirtieth anniversary of the first parade in 1996. A political divide that has not been healed, but which offers the LGBTQIA+ community and the city two different visions of the same battle for rights.
For information on the route and accessibility of the parade, the organizers invite you to follow the official Arrevutamm Pride social media channels.
