Pride Month is celebrated in June for a reason. LGBT communities around the world commemorate the Stonewall Riots, which spontaneously took place in New York City following a police raid at a gay bar named Stonewall on 28 June 1969. The uprising became a benchmark in fighting for LGBT rights in the United States and around the world.
Bangkok, a city of diverse cultures, never misses out on celebrating this global event, offering a number of activities to support diversity and the local LGBT community.
