Buenos Aires Gay Pride Parade

Something of a gay Mecca, by Latin America standards at least, Buenos Aires hosts a thriving gay and lesbian community with many gay clubs, bars and social venues. The main Pride Parade is held in the streets of downtown Buenos Aires on the first Saturday of November, to celebrate the formation of the first-ever gay group in Buenos Aires in 1969. Thousands of gays and non-gays from many different organisations join this popular, flamboyant event. Buenos Aires Gay Pride Parade is the most important annual gay event.

Where? Streets of downtown Buenos Aires. Includes May Square, facing Cathedral and Presidential Palace.

This year Buenos Aires Gay Pride Parade will be held on November 7 at six o’clock in the Plaza de Mayo.
