The parade started in Klafthmonos Square at 7pm and ended in Syntagma Square, in front of the Greek Parliament. The Festival’s motto for this year was “A Family Affair”.

The main goals of Athens Pride 2014 was to raise awareness in regards to the possibility of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transsexuals in creating a legally recognized family.

“This year’s parade is very important. Modern family structure needs to be equal. In the UK, marriage is destined for everyone” said the ambassador of the UK.

This year’s parade theme stressed the meaning of family as defined by any person in the LGBT community. For this reason, the poster for Athens Pride Festival 2014 shows the archetypal couple as Adam and Adam, united with their child, Eros, as an example of a LGBT family.
