Goteo

🏳️‍🌈 In this month of LGBTIQ+ Pride, from Goteo we want to put the focus on those projects that understand that Pride was born as a revolt and remains, above all, an act of resistance. While big brands appropriate our symbols, there are initiatives that keep alive the critical and vindicating spirit of the LGBTIQ+ movement, creating spaces where diversity is celebrated from authenticity and not from the market.

✊🏽The three projects we present today share a transformative vision of Pride: far from sponsored floats and pink capitalism, these initiatives recover the political and communitarian character of our struggles. They are spaces where sexual and gender diversity is intertwined with other social demands, creating a fabric of collective resistance against a system that continues to exclude those who do not fit into its norms.

🎭 Because art and culture are powerful tools to transform realities. Through music, theater, dance, visual arts and reinvented popular traditions, these initiatives create new imaginaries where all identities have a place. They are spaces of experimentation and freedom where established norms are questioned and new ways of relating to each other are proposed. Stay and we'll introduce you to them!

Agrocuir da Ulloa Festival: Where tradition and avant-garde come together

💚 In the heart of the Ulloa region (Lugo), a group of friends have achieved what seemed impossible: to create an LGBTIQ+ festival that celebrates its tenth anniversary in the heart of the Galician countryside. The Agrocuir da Ulloa Festival is not only a celebration of Pride, it is a vindication of a living and diverse countryside that embraces tradition while building a more inclusive present.

🤠 On August 22 and 23, Monterroso will be filled with music, theater, storytelling, workshops and round tables in different spaces of the town. The most special thing about this festival is its intergenerational character, inspired by the traditional pilgrimages, which generates both day and night spaces where people of all ages live together in an atmosphere of respect and celebration.

👉🏼 The Agrocuir is committed to recovering natural spaces, promoting values such as environmentalism and feminism, and weaving ties of cooperation between people and associations. And it does so without charging admission, so that it is accessible to everyone. Therefore, your support is essential for this dream to remain possible in its tenth anniversary. Donate here.

Vallecas Pride Concert: Music as a cry for freedom.

✅ In Vallecas, one of the neighborhoods with the most cultural and vindicative tradition in Madrid, LGTBIQ+ Pride is expressed through art and music. A collective of activists and neighbors has organized a free and diverse concert to close the LGTBIQ+ Pride March in Vallecas, creating a space where artistic expression becomes a tool for visibility and social transformation.

🌟 This concert is more than music: it is a political, cultural and community act that uses art as a tool for change. It promotes LGTBIQ+ visibility in neighborhoods, creates safe spaces for artistic expression, and demonstrates that culture can be inclusive and horizontal when it emerges from below and in community. In addition, proceeds from the drinks bar will go to financially support the realization of Madrid Critical Pride 2025.

👉🏼 The organizing team has more than 10 years of experience in the coordination of cultural street events: concerts, parades, open mic, screenings, workshops and talks with a strong social dimension. Its collaboration with local artists, sound technicians, designers and volunteers with a background in LGTBIQ+, feminist and neighborhood activism guarantees a quality event with soul. Donate here.

Lo Ponte Farruca: Reinventing traditions from diversity.

🤗 In the town of Laza, known for its famous Entroido (one of the oldest carnivals in Galicia), the cultural association Enlazados has created a pilgrimage that reinvents traditions from a contemporary and inclusive perspective. Lo Ponte Farruca is a cultural laboratory where Galician identity and LGTBI+ diversity intertwine to create new forms of expression and celebration.

📅 On August 15, 16 and 17, Laza will be transformed into a space for cultural experimentation. The program includes a craft fair that recovers traditional techniques to create contemporary objects, a decorated tractorada that turns agricultural vehicles into mobile works of art, vermouth sessions with traditional music fused with current sounds, concerts that mix Galician roots with global influences, and workshops where ancestral knowledge is transmitted with a current look.

🙌🏼 Lo Ponte Farruca has a strong artistic and cultural component, using creativity as a tool to raise awareness of current social issues such as diversity, equality and human rights. Through culture and art, this contemporary pilgrimage contributes to social transformation and the visibility of the realities of rural Galicia, making the celebration a space for meeting, reflection and collective creation.
