Tel Aviv Pride
Tel Aviv, Israel

“You can’t sit with us”
Said NO ONE in Tel Aviv.
This is one of the most inclusive and multicultural Prides in the world. Rainbows and the Star of David join glittery forces for a massive week of LOVE.

Get a party bracelet for 3 or 5 of the 24hour parties (£150 or £215). The main parade’s free on the Friday and ends with live shows and bar crawls along the beach.
Paris Pride
Paris, France
25th June - 1st July
“The city of love, and oral sex”
Paris shuts down (or opens up) for half a million rainbow-clad paraders to sing and dance, nips out and bare-arsed through the streets.

La Marche des Fiertés started in the 80s (when most of Europe was still homophobic). Today the LGBTQ community still march for their rights in France.
After the parade, head to the gay district of Le Marais for parties in clubs, saunas and public fountains. Course.

Expect more oiled-up naked bodies than at a Swedish sauna.
Sitges Pride is just half an hour south of Barcelona. It’s 5 days of outrageous beach partying, all under the shimmering rainbow flag.
