WorldPride in Amsterdam kicked off amid rising safety concerns, as LGBTQIA+ reporting platform RITA saw over 70 incident reports—far above its usual daily average—mostly linked to the Milkshake festival and Pride Walk. Experts believe increased visibility and newly established safer spaces may have encouraged more reporting, but the spike follows a similar surge at Pride Amersfoort, where a serious assault occurred. The event’s mood is further shadowed by a deadly van attack at Berlin’s Pride, labeled a terrorist act by ISIS, prompting Amsterdam’s mayor to condemn the violence and announce heightened security for remaining Pride events.
