🌈 PrideNow - Official ColognePride Opening Party

Following the overwhelming success in 2025—the Opening Party was completely sold out and kicked off Pride weekend with a spectacular start and an unforgettable atmosphere—we’re going even bigger in 2026!

The CSD Opening Party 2026 promises another high-energy lineup! If you want to be part of the official kickoff to the CSD weekend, be sure to get your ticket early.
