The 2023 #PrideParade earlier this afternoon (June 4th) was incredible! Thousands of LGBTQ+ advocates and allies took to Rama 1 Road, rocking their colorful costumes and dancing to lively tunes, spreading love, promoting acceptance of diversity, and advocating for equal legal rights. Stages at BACC, Siam Center, and CentralWorld were filled with positive, rainbow-powered energy as people from all walks of life came together to support the LGBTQ+ community under this year's theme: Beyond Gender.

Joining the parade were the beloved Governor Chatchart Sitthiphan and leaders of the winning parties from the general elections, including Pheu Thai's Phaethongtarn Shinawatra and Move Forward's Pita Limcharoenrat. Pita, in particular, has expressed his commitment to supporting marriage equality and gender identity rights if he becomes the Prime Minister.
