Come and enjoy Sunday at the 13th annual Fun&Run - a charity run and fun afternoon against homophobia, biphobia, transphobia and stigmatization of people with HIV. The event will again take place in Prague's Žluté lázně.

Not running? Never mind! Fun&Run offers a lot for non-runners as well. You can find the programme bellow!

All proceeds from the entry fee to the run will go towards the running of the online LGBT+ counselling service sbarvouven.cz and Prague's House of Light, a centre for helping people living with HIV.

The event is organised by Prague Pride and the Czech AIDS Aid Society to mark the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia (IDAHOT), which commemorates the removal of homosexuality from the International Classification of Diseases by the WHO on the 17th of May 1990.

Support not only Fun&Run but also Prague Pride by purchasing a Rainbow Ribbon. The Rainbow Ribbon is a traditional symbol of the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) in Slovakia and is now being extended to the Czech Republic. The aim is to visibly express support for LGBT+ people and contribute to creating a respectful and safe environment where they can be themselves. IDAHOBIT thus newly combines two projects of Prague Pride - the Fun&Run Charity Run and the Rainbow Ribbon. You can purchase a ribbon directly when you purchase your run registration.  

Get involved and show your support for LGBT+ people. You can also check nosimduhovoustuzku.cz/en

Kara studied musical theatre and performed in productions in London's West End for many years before deciding to become a full-time drag queen. She performs all over the UK with her drag show, where she has a large fan base and is one of the most in-demand drag queens in the UK. What is unique about Kara? The fact that she sings live, so you can look forward to one hell of a party!
