LGBTQ+ Pride Events are celebrations that promote the rights and visibility of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community. These events often include parades, festivals, and educational activities, allowing individuals to express their identities and advocate for equality. Typically held in June to commemorate the Stonewall Riots of 1969, Pride Events foster a sense of community and support. They aim to raise awareness about issues facing the LGBTQ+ community and encourage acceptance and understanding among all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
