The 90 floats and around 65,000 participants once again included a float from our LGBTIQ+ network di.to. and around 400 committed colleagues. <q>This demonstration of diversity and tolerance is more important than ever,<\/q> says di.to. spokesperson Anna Pavlitschek. <q>ColognePride is a clear political statement in times when queer hostility is on the rise in this country and is also being promoted by some parties.<\/q><\/p>\n<p>The demo parade is the colourful and exuberant highlight of ColognePride, which has been drawing attention to the legal rights of the LGBTIQ+ community with a wide variety of events throughout July. At the weekend, a stage programme provided an exuberant atmosphere with the band Tokio Hotel as the top act on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n<p>ColognePride, which we as REWE GROUP supported as the main sponsor for the second time, is both a party and a rally. The focus is on the legal rights and acceptance of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgender, intersex and queer (LGBTIQ) people. Under this year&#8217;s motto &#8220;Many. Together. Strong!&#8221;, ColognePride drew attention to the discrimination and marginalisation of LGBTIQ+ people. The event is therefore also a sign of solidarity with all people who are committed to an open and tolerant society.<\/p>\n<p>We have been committed to diversity within the company for many years. Our di.to. network celebrated its 11th birthday this year.<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-myblocks-section block-section

special prize at the Express Queer Awards<\/h2>\n            <p>EXPRESS.de presented the Express Queer Awards at the opening of the Cologne CSD street festival. On Friday evening, Ines Schurin, Group Director Corporate Communications, and Frank Bartels, Head of Event &amp; Travel Management and co-founder of our LGBTIQ+ network di.to, accepted the award on the main stage at Cologne&#8217;s Heumarkt. The award is given to people and organisations who stand up for the queer community, who entertain, who always raise their voice for tolerance and acceptance of the LGBTQIA+ community or who create a safe place for others.<\/p>\n<p>We have been attending the Cologne CSD with our own truck for eight years. Our CEO Lionel Souque emphasises how important diversity is for us as a company: <q>I am convinced that we can only move forward as a company and as a society if we see diversity as a necessity and a strength: you always need people who tick differently to you. At REWE GROUP, we live this every day! For eight years now, we have been demonstrating our position at the Cologne CSD with our own truck and this year with over 400 colleagues who are standing up for acceptance and diversity. For the second time, we are the main sponsor of ColognePride with REWE and PENNY. I am just as proud of this as I am of the special prize from the Express Queer Awards, which we received at the start of the Pride weekend.<\/q><\/p>\n        <\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"myblock-wrapper block-my-text-box\" data-module-name=\"Text Highlight\"><div class=\"textbox\">\n    <div class=\"textbox__inner dark\">\n                    <h2 class=\"textbox__overline\">In addition to the REWE GROUP, this year&#8217;s winners are:<\/h2>\n                            <div class=\"textbox__text entry-content\"><p>Person of the Year: Tim Lahr (pastor from Cologne)<\/p>\n<p>Ally of the Year: Hazel Brugger (podcaster, comedienne, author)<\/p>\n<p>Drag of the year: The Only Naomy<\/p>\n<p>Entertainer of the Year: Tahnee (Comedienne)<\/p>\n<p>Organisation of the year: r(h)einqueer Bonn e.
