Valencian is a language of Indo-European family, spoken and official in the Valencian Community, in Spain. being part of linguistic diasystem of much of the territories of the former Crown of Aragon.
The first manifestation of LGBT pride was held in Valencia in 1979, organized by the Moviment d'Alliberament Sexual del País Valenciá (MASPV), which was attended by some 5,000 people. The following year the civil government did not approve the demonstration, this time called by the Moviment d'Alliberament Gay del Pais Valencià (MAGPV), which held a rally in the Plaza de la Virgen. Replacement of activism came the hand of the Collective Lambda, founded in 1986, and performing demonstrations every 28 June until in 1992 took up the parade that comes to this day, estimating in 2019 the 30,000 participants.
