Organisers of the banned Belgrade EuroPride have said they will gather for the march, despite the ban.

The EuroPride march - which is due to take place today - was banned by Serbian President, Aleksandar Vucic.

EuroPride is a Europe wide initiative to bring LGBTI communities together.

Fine Gael MEP Maria Walsh says Serbia has know EuroPride was coming for a number of years:

"Countries apply to host EuroPride. It brings in a lot of revenue, a lot of tourism opportunity. And you're given a number of years to build to the capacity. When Serbia applied, so too did Dublin, so too did Malta and Portugal - and Serbia won out".
