KLM and Delta Air Lines are the official airline partners of WorldPride 2026 in Amsterdam. The event is expected to attract 2 million visitors and put Amsterdam back on the international map as a city where everyone can be themselves, 25 years after same-sex marriage became legal.
WorldPride 2026 promises to be the largest Pride event ever in Amsterdam. As the official airline partner, KLM, together with its partner Delta Air Lines, will support WorldPride 2026 and bring thousands of passengers from around the world to Amsterdam.
WorldPride is an international event held in a different city every 2 to 3 years. After the 2025 edition in Washington, Amsterdam will host the event in 2026. This edition marks several anniversaries: 25 years since the first same-sex marriage, 30 years of Pride Amsterdam, and 80 years of COC Netherlands, the oldest existing LGBTQ+ organization in the world. At KLM, we believe that everyone should be welcome, no matter where they come from or who they are. For us, WorldPride 2026 is more than just an event: it’s an opportunity to demonstrate that connection and inclusion are in KLM’s DNA. We’re proud that, together with Pride Amsterdam, we can bring people together from all over the world to celebrate being yourself. – Miriam Kartman, Chief People Officer at KLM
