Alcorcón Pride 2026 will feature Juan Sanguino as a key figure to deliver the opening speech on June 12th. Following the arrival of the pride march to the city center, the journalist, writer, and communicator will address attendees in Plaza de los Reyes de España, an event that annually gathers hundreds of residents committed to diversity and equality.
Sanguino's speech is part of the institutional ceremony, which also includes the traditional raising of the LGTB flag. His participation underscores the social and advocacy-driven nature of the celebration, aiming to highlight the diversity of Alcorcón's society and acknowledge advancements in rights and freedoms.
The opening speech is scheduled to begin at 8:30 PM, immediately after the Pride March concludes its route through Alcorcón's streets from Los Cantos to Plaza del Ayuntamiento. Participants will then proceed to Plaza de los Reyes de España for one of the most symbolic moments of the program. The selection of Juan Sanguino aims to connect with various generations through his recognized media work and commitment to the visibility of the LGBTQ+ community.
The events on June 12th will conclude with free concerts by Ptazeta and Juacko, notable artists on this year's lineup. Thus, Alcorcón once again solidifies its central Pride day as a blend of advocacy, citizen participation, and live music, reinforcing a celebration that gains increasing prominence in the municipality's festive calendar.
