The Rome LGBTQ2S+ Pride parade celebrated its 30th anniversary Saturday as tens of thousands of people in brightly coloured outfits marched through the Italian capital waving banners, dancing and singing as they marked gay rights and poked fun at Pope Francis.

People gather to take part in the Pride parade in Turin, Italy, Saturday, June 15, 2024. The Pope had to issue an apology last month after Italian media quoted unnamed bishops saying that Francis jokingly used the term "faggotness" while speaking in Italian during a meeting. He had used the term in reaffirming the Vatican's ban on allowing gay men to enter seminaries and be ordained priests.
