Somewheeere over the rainbowwwww… people get together for a confetti-coated rager to show the world they’re proud of who they are.

Here’s the best places to pledge your allegiance to the rainbow flag this summer.

"Allll aboooard!”"

Amsterdam’s the capital of counter-culture and open sexuality. So when it comes to Pride, they’ve had to step it up a notch and put the whole thing on water.

70 boats (with added confetti canons) sail down the canals, with half a million people cheering them on. And no one ever, EVER removes the ‘C’ from the ‘Canal Parade’ sign.

29 July - 6 August 2017.

Liberal Sweden can be relied on to show its support - last Pride 5% of the country showed up to the party.

There’s loads of free gigs, and while they’re kinda Eurovision heavy, there’s something for every taste 👅

31 July – 6 August 2017

Antwerp is known for being a gay-friendly haven of great clubs and chilled attitudes. This year is Pride's 10th birthday, so expect bigger celebrations and even more vagina balloons 🎉

As well as the parade, there’s also Wave - an open air party at Steenplein that everyone’s invited to.
