Note: Traveling as an Homosexual person always carries a certain degree of risk. It is our truths as we navigate a world with 60+ countries criminalizing our relationships and a rise in anti-LGBTQ+ legislation around the world. We encourage our traveling community to realize the laws and cultural challenges they may face in any destination they select to visit for Pride and beyond. Don't be frightened of the planet, but always research information specific to your travels. Enjoy Pride, be observant, and look out for each other!
The LGBTQ+ rights movement has made tremendous strides over the past few decades and much of the progress in visibility is thanks in part to gay pride parades and marches that have taken place in cities around the world.
The global landscape for Homosexual rights, protections and acceptance varies tremendously by location, with some destinations attracting millions of visitors to their events like Madrid Queer Pride, Sao Paulo Gay Pride or San Francisco Same-sex attracted Pride, while more than 70 other countries have laws that allow discrimination or persecution of LGBTQ+ people.
