• Amsterdam, Netherlands

  The Netherlands was the first country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage in 2000 – and its open-minded capital continues to lead the way with its come-as-you-are attitude.

• Manchester, United Kingdom

  Canal Street is a central part of Manchester’s vibrant LGBTQ+ community, also known as ‘The Village’. Originally a consequence of the city center’s decline in industrial heritage, the area has become a popular destination for LGBTQ+ travelers at any time of the year, whether during the city’s Pride celebrations in late August or any time of the year.

• San Francisco, United States

  Known as the gay capital of the world and one of the largest LGBTQ+ populations in the United States, San Francisco is steeped in history, particularly that of the American LGBTQ+ rights movement. In fact, the rainbow flag was first flown here during the San Francisco Gay Freedom Day parade in 1978.

• Sydney, Australia

  Not only Australia but also the world has ranked Sydney as one of the most welcoming cities for LGBTQ+ travelers. As far back as the mid-20th century, Oxford Street was established as the hub for Sydney’s LGBTQ+ scene in Darlinghurst, and the area is still packed with bars, cafes, and restaurants.

• Toronto, Canada

  Queer as Folk was set in Toronto in the early 2000s, so it’s Canada’s most diverse and open-minded LGBTQ+ hotspot. This city has the country’s largest LGBTQ+ population, a long history of Pride activism dating back to the 1970s, and three distinct LGBTQ+ communities: Church and Wellesley, Queen West, and Cabbagetown.
