There are numerous Pride events to choose from every year, but none rival what goes down in West Hollywood.

WeHo Pride annually hosts one of the largest and most vibrant LGBTQ+ Pride events, consistently drawing hundreds of thousands of people to attend. Their Pride festival started in 1979, five years before the City of West Hollywood was incorporated as a municipality. It became the epicenter for LGBTQ+ rights in Los Angeles and became instrumental in mobilizing LGBTQ+ advocacy in the greater Los Angeles region.
