From taconazo to techno, from drag divas to love declarations, Madrid Orgullo 2025 is not just a party—it’s a political, cultural, and deeply personal celebration. And this year, there’s extra reason to show up: Spain marks 20 years of marriage equality. Two decades of love, visibility, and the fight that made it possible.
Running from 2 to 6 July, MADO 2025 brings together icons and new queer voices across four major stages: Plaza Pedro Zerolo, Puerta del Sol, Plaza de España, and the ever-glam Plaza de las Reinas (a temporary royal makeover of Plaza del Rey).
The first wave of artists? Nothing short of fabulous: Ana Torroja, Gloria Trevi, Chanel, Samantha Hudson, Rozalén, Nebulossa, Kiddy Smile, Soraya, Christian Chávezet Pastora Soler—among dozens of others—will electrify the capital.
But MADO is more than its music. It’s the human rights conference, the legendary High Heels Race, the neighbourhood pride in Chueca, the activist-filled parade from Atocha to Colón, and the community-rooted fiesta PROUD BLING!, a safe space for queer urban culture led by La GG, Anadie, and Charly Brown.
As Samantha Hudson once told us, "We’re not here just to exist. We’re here to disturb, to glitter, to make you listen." MADO 2025 feels like exactly that—joy as resistance, music as healing, and love as law.
See you in Madrid. Bring your heels, bring your people, and bring your loudest self.
