Around 100,000 people have marched in Budapest in Hungary's largest ever LGBTQ+ Pride event in defiance of a government ban. Organizers called Saturday's march a bold stand against Prime

Beneath a blaze of rainbow flags and amid roars of defiance, big crowds gathered in the Hungarian capital Budapest for the city’s 30th annual Pride march – an event that, this year, is unfolding as both a celebration and a protest.

Organisers estimate up to 200,000 people marched after government banned the annual celebration. Tens of thousands of people have marched for LGBTQ rights in the Hungarian capital, Budapest, defying a government ban and police orders, in one of the biggest shows of opposition to Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
