RoCK Pride Week — Phnom Penh

Rainbow Community Kampuchea (RoCK), Cambodia's best-known LGBTIQ organisation, has held a Pride Week in Phnom Penh around 17 May every year since 2009. The date lines up with the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia (IDAHOBIT). LGBTIQ people travel in from the provinces for a week of workshops, a community day, a sports day, performances and dialogues with officials on law and policy. In 2020 and 2021 it moved online.

Dates for the May 2027 Pride Week had not been announced when we checked in October 2026, so look at rockcambodia.org or RoCK's Facebook page in the spring.

Phnom Penh's bigger street party is a separate event. Pride Fest Cambodia, run by Pride Cambodia Organization, puts on a Rainbow Run, a remork (tuk-tuk) race, a Pride Walk, the Reajiny drag contest and concerts on the riverside. Its tenth edition in late May 2025 drew thousands despite a downpour, and the UN in Cambodia published photos of the 2026 edition in June.
