THE VEGGIE PRIDE MARCH

The Veggie Pride march which takes place in Paris, France every May is a demonstration open to all people who do not eat animals and wish to stand up and be counted. Concerning this restriction, check out the Frequently Asked Questions section on their website:

This year the demonstration is on May 19th commencing at 2.30pm.
The organizers ask for all slogans, signs and streamers to be exclusively centred on vegetarianism or veganism for the animals. The Veggie Pride being a demonstration of individuals expressing their pride to be vegetarians or vegans for the animals, we ask that no initials or names of organizations be reproduced on the streamers and signs.
4pm: Arrival at the "Fontaine des Innocents" (fountain of the innocent). End of the procession and preparation of a "happening" symbolizing the ocean of suffering and death imposed daily on the animals.
4.30 - 5pm: Happening. The demonstration and the happening will be declared in the Prefecture in accordance with the law.
After 5.30pm: Various activities.
7.30pm: Start of the after-pride. A party will take place, further details will be given subsequently on our website. Possibility of accommodation or housing amongst inhabitants of Paris.
