Vallarta Pride is more than a festival


Vallarta Pride, an annual event held in our beloved Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, is a vibrant manifestation of LGBTQ+ diversity, inclusion, and pride. Since its inception in 2013, this festival has grown in popularity and relevance, becoming one of the most important LGBTQ+ events in Latin America. During a week filled with color, music, and celebration, Vallarta Pride brings together people of all sexual orientations and gender identities to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and promote equality. The main goal of Vallarta Pride is to create a safe and welcoming space where everyone can freely express themselves without fear of judgment or discrimination. Through a variety of activities such as parades, concerts, themed parties, and conferences, the festival provides opportunities for education, activism, and celebration. In addition to being a festive celebration, Vallarta Pride also serves as a platform to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, promote acceptance, and combat discrimination in all its forms.

One of the highlights of Vallarta Pride is its colorful and energetic parade that winds through the streets of downtown Puerto Vallarta. With adorned floats, booming music, and people dressed in extravagant costumes, the parade is a visual expression of LGBTQ+ pride and the diversity of the community. In addition to the parade, the festival offers a wide range of cultural, artistic, and social events that showcase the richness and creativity of the LGBTQ+ community. Vallarta Pride not only attracts the local community but also draws visitors from around the world who come to enjoy Mexican hospitality and the festive atmosphere. With the participation of international artists, LGBTQ+ activists, and prominent personalities, the festival offers a unique experience that combines fun and entertainment with a message of inclusion and acceptance. In addition to celebrating LGBTQ+ pride, Vallarta Pride also significantly contributes to the local economy and tourism in Puerto Vallarta, attracting thousands of visitors each year.
