Tucked away in the charming Jordaan neighborhood, the Saarein Pride Street Party is a true hidden gem. While it may not be as widely known as some of the larger events, that’s exactly what makes it so special, its smaller scale and relaxed vibe create a uniquely welcoming and intimate atmosphere.
Hosted by the legendary Café Saarein, one of Amsterdam’s most beloved queer-friendly bars with a rich 'herstory' rooted in the city’s lesbian scene, this street party offers a refreshing alternative to the high-energy chaos of the city center. The crowd here is diverse and down-to-earth, with locals and in-the-know visitors coming together to dance, mingle, and celebrate Pride in a cozy, inclusive setting.
Expect a warm, laid-back street festival feel with good tunes, flowing drinks, and friendly faces. The music ranges from funky disco and classic pop to soulful beats that get the street dancing without overwhelming the space.
If you're looking to escape the massive crowds but still want that authentic Pride spirit, the Saarein Street Party is the perfect choice. Come as you are, stay for the vibes—and don’t be surprised if it ends up being one of your favorite Pride moments.
