The 20th anniversary of this event is held under the English title "Equal Rights for the Unequal".
What isn't so obvious are the simply normal gays and lesbians who are
just out to have a nice time without all of the show. I always feel like
a piss poor lesbian as I pull up on my powder blue scooter looking
rather average as a more traditional dyke rumbles up on a hot Harley.
When I begin to look past the more flowery, showy participants I realize these folks are just like me, living normal lives and enjoying being out amongst "their people". Eating, drinking and lots of merriment is the order of the day, With lots of informational booths along the way.
Five stages placed throughout the 20,000 square meters of party keep the energy high in the festival attendees.
There is a stage to suit every taste: disco/retro, techno, local talent, a main stage that hosts a little bit of everything including political talks, and a stage dedicated to the womyn (haven't used THAT spelling since the 80's - I'm happy to trot it out there for ya!).
If you're in the area, come to what I find to be Berlin's best street festival.
Everyone is welcome. A fun time to be had by all.
Just don't miss out on the pretzels shaped like penises... BIG penises of course!

That looks like a blast!
I hope you don't mind, by the way, but I've nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award.
