Hundreds of Pride events happen around the world

From Atlanta to Zurich, from Columbus to Johannesburg, the world is ringed with Pride parades, festivals, gay days and picnics.

Interpride, the International Association of Lesbian, Gay Bisexual, Transgendered Pride Coordinators, listed 169 Pride events worldwide as of May 11.

Not all are in June. Some are in the fall, to avoid conflict with June Pride events in other cities.

The international Pride theme for 2003 is "Peace Through Pride," set by the association's members, who are Pride organizers in individual cities. Interpride holds their annual world conference in Montreal this year, October 2 to 5. Their office is in San Francisco.

Below is a list of Pride events throughout the year. All dates are in 2003. Interpride updates this list regularly, and puts it on their web site at http://www.interpride.org. Information on Black LGBT Pride celebrations came from the International Federation of Black Prides.
