Well over a million people come out in support of Mexico City Gay Pride, which takes place over several days in late June of 2009. Mexico's high-altitude capital city has a huge and active gay population, although generally the gay scene is a bit more discreet and underground than in other major North American metropolises. The increasingly popular Mexico City Gay Pride, however, is helping to heighten the LGBT community's visibility.
A good way to experience the Gay Pride festivities in Mexico City is to book a Gay Pride tour through the reputable gay tour company, Arco Iris Tours. If you're attending the Pride celebration on your own, keep in mind that the Mexico City Gay Pride Parade takes place in 2009 on June 20 at noon, with the procession leading along Paseo de la Reforma and ending with a rally at Main Square (Zocalo).
Numerous gay clubs, hotels, pubs, and restaurants will also be holding events and offering special promotions during Mexico City's Gay Pride. Check out useful gay Mexico City resources, such as the Mexico City Gay Life online guide, which was created by Arco Iris Tours.
