Pride Festivals are annual events that celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, promoting acceptance, equality, and visibility. These festivals often include parades, live performances, and various activities that highlight the culture and achievements of LGBTQ+ individuals. They serve as a platform for advocacy and raise awareness about issues affecting the community. Typically held in June to commemorate the Stonewall Riots of 1969, Pride Festivals take place in cities around the world. Participants often display colorful flags, such as the rainbow flag, symbolizing diversity and inclusion. These events foster a sense of belonging and encourage dialogue about LGBTQ+ rights and representation.
