forced to scale back WorldPride and EuroGames, the Denmark capital (and sister city Malmö, Sweden) were expecting up to a million visitors.
Instead, when the the ten day celebration starts tomorrow, the region will likely see crowds of only a few thousand at many of the events.
Less than half the 5,000 LGBTQ+ athletes that were originally expected will now compete in EuroGames. Instead of one massive WorldPride parade, there will be seven smaller marches.Still after more than six years of planning and the interruption of a global pandemic, the events will go forward.
