The activists gathered on Bağdat Avenue to quickly hold a march and then disperse. Taken by surprise, police later searched the side streets looking for LGBTI+s.

373 people were detained during the İstanbul Pride Parade. Everyone has been released once their statements were taken and medical check-ups were completed. Lawyers say, "LGBTI+s were tortured and subjected to maltreatment during detention."

The Harem Of No One, a queer collective from London is organizing a solidarity event for İstanbul Pride. All of the profit made from this event will be donated to the activists working to organize the Pride activities in İstanbul.
