The 2021 attack on Tbilisi Pride was a violent counter-demonstration by far-right protesters[9] against an attempt to hold a pride parade by pro-LGBT organizers of the NGO Tbilisi Pride in Tbilisi, Georgia.[10] Anti-LGBT protesters frustrated attempts to hold a parade, attacked dozens of journalists who were covering the events and NGO offices,[3][1] which resulted in the canceling of the Pride demonstration after four location changes from the initial procession at Rustaveli Avenue.
The protest held in support of Tbilisi Pride by a number of media outlets and political parties on the second day was also met by violent counter-protests.[2]
