JO 2024: Opening of the Pride House, the Fan Zone for the LGBT+ Community and Allies<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Space for Celebration and Sharing During the Olympics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the duration of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, a safe and welcoming space for LGBT+ athletes and supporters has been opened by the Seine. The Pride House<\/a>, inaugurated with great ceremony, is designed to offer a place of celebration and sharing against discrimination in sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Grand Inauguration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On Monday evening, two ministers, a senator, and numerous local officials participated in the official opening of the Pride House, located on the Quai des Invalides, between the Seine and the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay. This space includes areas for refreshments and dining, a stage for daily events with athletes and supporters, and a large screen for live broadcasts of the competitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Mobile and Inclusive Initiative<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To reach a wider audience, a Mobile Pride House will also travel to various locations of the Games to engage with spectators and the general public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aurore Berg\u00e9, outgoing Minister for Equality between Women and Men and the Fight against Discrimination, expressed her satisfaction at the opening. She described the Pride House as “a place of celebration, sharing, and debates, a place where everyone has a safe place to be.” This space also represents “the international fight for the decriminalization of homosexuality that we must continue with our allies.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Message of Solidarity and Equality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Am\u00e9lie Oud\u00e9a-Cast\u00e9ra, outgoing Minister of Sports and the Olympic and Paralympic Games, emphasized the importance of this initiative by stating: “It is important to send a positive message that reminds us that we are all equal,” before inviting everyone to celebrate “the pride and joy of being together to fight against all forms of discrimination.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Project Born in 2010<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The first Pride House emerged during the Vancouver Olympics in 2010, and the initiative has been continued at subsequent Olympics. More than festive spaces, these places aim to “create a more inclusive sporting future,” according to J\u00e9r\u00e9my Goupille, co-president of the Fier Play association, which manages the Paris Pride House in collaboration with the team from Rosa Bonheur, a well-known Parisian guinguette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
