This is Vegas, after all.Īnd even though we celebrate Pride in October, there are still plenty of Pride events happening around town throughout the month of June! Some highlights include the Henderson Pride Festival (with events happening throughout the month), PRIDE OUTside’s hiking events throughout the summer, Women's HotHer Pool Party at Influence, The POOL at The LINQ, on Sunday, June 5, and “A Beautiful Tomorrow” PRIDE poolside celebration at the Boulevard Pool at the Cosmopolitan on June 18. But on and off Strip, you’ll find fun bars, clubs, events, variety shows, and entertainment that warmly welcome the LGBTQ community, even if they don’t explicitly cater to it. The best gay bars tend to be beloved dives, many of which are located in the ' Fruit Loop”-the actual name of Vegas’ gay bar district just east of the Strip. When it comes to gay destinations, Las Vegas isn’t exactly Miami or Palm Springs, but we do what we can and we do it with a whole lot of camp. That said, there are still plenty of places to celebrate your LGBTQ+ pride in Vegas all throughout “official” Pride month, and every other month of the year, too.
June is just too hot-not sweaty-sexy-ripped-bodies hot, but eyeliner-running-down-the-face hot.
In Las Vegas, we celebrate Pride in October (officially LGBT History Month).
