Rainbow Wellington shocked by aggression at rainbow events

Rainbow Wellington, like many in Aotearoa, is shocked and upset by the displays of aggression against rainbow events in Tāmaki Makaurau. 
 
We call on all leaders and allies, both local and national, to show their support for our rainbow communities and performers. 
 
We ask for police and venues to work with organisers to ensure our people are safe and events can go ahead without disruption. 
 
We encourage everyone to reach out and support your rainbow whānau and performers.
 
We look forward to Wellington Pride Festival 2025, running from 7-23 March. See wellingtonpridefestival.com for more information.
