Most LGBTQ+ Friendly Cities in the World


Recommended Posts

Happy Pride Month, one and all! It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and to celebrate, we asked Time Out’s LGBTQ+-identifying writers and editors to tell us all about their favourite city on the planet. The resulting list covers all four corners of the globe, from the beaches of Brazil to the creative hub of Glasgow’s Southside. These are cities with a vibrant queer community, cities that support and protect LGBTQ+ citizens and visitors, and cities that are notable hubs for LGBTQ+ life in their respective countries and regions. So, what are the world’s most LGBTQ+-friendly cities? While we couldn’t possibly name them all, these are some of our favourites.

Agree?

What’s with the latest trend of trying to push Lisbon and Portugal down everyone’s throats? The country is in shambles because of all the hype it got and all the expats are disappointed because the city really doesn’t provide what the propaganda promised them, not socially, not financially, not infrastructure wise etc. Now no one is happy, nor locals nor the hoards of rich  digital nomads that went there thinking it is the promise land :rip:She’s a cute girl but she is way far behind from many other cities to be considered one of the most lgbqt + friendly

Kinda shook that 4 British cities made the list but Manchester or Brighton and Hove weren't one of them. Never head Bristol mentioned in these kind of conversations but maybe that's just me

Why is it in shambles? Never been there but people do talk here about Lisbon like it's a promised land so I'm curious what's the tea

It's Hyderabad* and it's no way anywhere remotely close to being lgbtq friendly lol. The pride march barely gets over 300 people in a city of 10 million :rip: however I'll say that there are a LOT of people on Grindr so lotsa closet cases.

We get it, you vote for Iniciativa Liberal. Those socio-economic factors have no direct correlation with the city's friendliness to the LGBTQ+ community and I can't trust a ranking with cities from Brazil, Mexico and India being placed so high compared to European cities.

Pretty much not a single Asian city besides #21 and idk how much of that is reliable
