    Stichting Amsterdam Gay Pride Korte Leidsedwarsstraat 12 1017 RC Amsterdam www.amsterdamgaypride.org [email protected] PERSBERICHT Amsterdam, 17 december 2015 EuroPride Amsterdam: 15 dagen festival met o.a. Roze Zaterdag, Mensenrechten-concert en Botenparade Stichting Amsterdam Gay Pride wil mooiste Botenparade ooit tijdens EuroPride Deelnemers die in 2016 mee willen varen tijdens de jaarlijkse Botenparade moeten flink aan de bak. Om de kwaliteit van de Botenparade te verhogen en vanwege de organisatie van EuroPride in Amsterdam, heeft de stichting Amsterdam Gay Pride (AGP) voor komend jaar de spelregels aangepast en aangescherpt. De inschrijving voor de Botenparade gaat 4 januari 2016 van start. Dan wordt ook de nieuwe website van de Amsterdam Gay Pride gelanceerd. Op Valentijnsdag (14 februari 2016), wordt bekend welke boten goed genoeg zijn om mee te varen met EuroPride Amsterdam. Elk jaar wordt in een Europese stad de EuroPride gehouden. Sinds 1991 wijst de EPOA, het Verbond van Europese (Gay-)Pride Organisatoren, steeds een stad aan die dat jaar de EuroPride mag organiseren. Dit jaar is de organisatie van de Amsterdam Gay Pride aan de beurt. In totaal zal het festival in de zomer maar liefst 15 dagen en drie weekeinden gaan duren. Het eerste weekeinde (23/24 juli) wordt Roze Zaterdag gevierd in combinatie met een Europees ‘mensenrechten-concert’. Het weekeinde daarna (30/31 juli) staat in het teken van het Milkshake-festival en in het weekeinde van 6/7 augustus staat de jaarlijkse Botenparade gepland. In de weken daartussen worden zo’n 200 activiteiten, bijeenkomsten, congressen en debatten in de stad gehouden. Thema 2016 EuroPride Thema van de aankomende EuroPride is: ’Join our freedom, feel free to join us!’.
