The 2011 Pride Parade in Prague

The annual Prague Pride was established in 2011. Prague is also a host of the Mezipatra Queer Film Festival.[1]

According to Frommer's, the Vinohrady neighborhood is "particularly gay-friendly".[2] Lonely Planet says, "Prague is a relatively tolerant destination for gay and lesbian travellers".[3]

For those who are critical of the commercial and mainstream aspect of the main Prague Pride, Alt*Pride, organized at the same time in August, is another way to get involved. Alt*Pride’s aim is also to explore crucial issues, such as ethnicity and class, which unfortunately are not given as much attention at the main pride event.[4]
