There are 20 spots on the boat to raffle off! Let UvA Pride know before 1 May why you'd like to join on 5 August.

Pride Amsterdam will kick off with the traditional Pride Walk on Saturday, 22 July and the festivities will continue for 14 days! The world-famous boat parade on 5 August is an essential part of these festivities. 'We are incredibly happy that the UvA is joining the education boat again this year,' says Jesper van de Vooren (board member UvA Pride). 'By celebrating together with the other Amsterdam educational institutions, we offer students and staff the chance to be part of this important and special party. This day is not only about LGBTQIA+ emancipation, but really about celebrating that everyone can and may be themselves. Exactly what the UvA also stands for.'
