LGBT Pride Events

LGBT Pride Events are celebrations that honor and support lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender communities. These events often include parades, festivals, and rallies to promote equality, visibility, and acceptance. They originated to commemorate the struggles for civil rights and aim to foster pride in diverse identities. Pride events serve as a safe space for expression, raise awareness about issues faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, and promote inclusivity within society. They are held worldwide at various times, often in June to coincide with the Stonewall Riots' anniversary, symbolizing resilience and progress toward equal rights.
