About UP PRIDE
UP Pride is the annual Pride celebration of the LGBTQIA+ community and allies in the University of the Philippines System. It was first held in 2008 in UP Diliman as an avenue to elevate the voices and concerns of the LGBTQI people within and beyond the university and was eventually institutionalized as an official UP Diliman event in 2016. Pursuing inclusivity even further, UP Pride commenced as a system-wide event in its historic first last 2021. Now, all constituent universities and campuses within the UP System partake in the celebration of one united UP Pride.
UP PRIDE 2022
This year’s UP Pride will be held from October 3 to 28, 2022 with the theme “Itutuloy, Itatagumpay” to encapsulate pride's role in our movement. It signifies our commitment to our fight, struggle, and journey no matter how heightened the challenges are. It also aims to effect victory in all forms such as the passage of the SOGIE Equality Bill and dismantle exclusionary and discriminatory systems that breed hate crimes and oppression against the LGBTQIA+ community.

Equality Talk Workshop Series
In celebrating UP Pride, we always go back to the lived experiences of the community and how we can further champion our fight for equality in this three-part webinar series. Giving importance to the members of the community and their struggles pave the way for younger generations to learn, reflect, and take steps from these stories. As the queer community continues to break ceiling glasses and take up spaces in various fields, we envision to empower them with skills and knowledge in being prepared to conquer spaces uncommonly open to queer people. This will be done in partnership with Philippine Financial & Inter-Industry Pride (PFIP.)
The UP Pride Team will conduct three hybrid seminars that will discuss the lived experiences of queer members, how to conduct one’s self in workplaces, and championing in lobbying pieces of legislation. This will happen from October 12-21, 2022.

UP Pride Film Festival
UPFF aims to provide an avenue for filmmakers who wish to express and explore themes about gender and sexuality. UPPFF aims to become a quintessential affair for young artists especially those from the UP System as we hope to support filmmakers who are either members or allies of the LGBTQI+ community, as they bear tales worthy of being seen and heard
The UP Pride Film Festival 2022 (UPFF) will be available both online and on-ground. The films that will be featured will be selected from a pool of films submitted through a public call for entries for LGBT films. UP Pride Film Fest will happen on October 17-26, 2022.

Pride March and Queen of Pride
As we celebrate UP Pride 2022, we must also celebrate our identities through pageantry. Showcasing a pageant like this will highlight the importance of being involved in the community and in advocacy. The pageant will not only promote empowerment but it will also urge people to bring social change as they will be given the chance to speak and promote equality, inclusivity, and acceptance— a great way to cap off the celebration of UP Pride. The Queen of Pride is open to all UP students from all campuses, and all identities and expressions. This coronation night will happen after the Pride March on October 28, 2022.
