Yet in open defiance of the ban, last year's Pride went on as planned and was the biggest in Hungary's history, with organizers estimating attendance at over 350,000. The massive turnout for the march, which the government for months had insisted would no longer be permitted, was seen as a major blow to Orbán's prestige.
