WHILE thousands showed up for the Cape Town Pride Festival, transforming the city into a rainbow playground, the importance of maintaining its protest roots remained a pressing issue.

Although the rain cut Saturday's festivities short, the day showcased music, drag, and live performances, with many families, friends, and allies supporting the City’s LGBTQIA+ community.

The Pride Festival is also a regular event for political parties. Those present included were GOOD leader and Tourism Minister Patricia de Lille and DA officials such as Mayco member for Urban Mobility Rob Qantas.

De Lille, in attendance as part of the Unite for Change Leadership Council, said that her party came to support the LGBTQIA+ community because “it’s a human right”.
