Monaco Pride

Monaco Pride is the principality's own LGBTQIA+ Pride initiative, first held in 2021. Unlike the large street parades of nearby France, it takes the form of an invitation-style awareness reception and celebration held each July, bringing together the local LGBTQIA+ community, allies, officials and partners. It has been supported by Fight Aids Monaco (the HIV/AIDS charity founded by Princess Stephanie) and corporate partners. Travellers seeking a full Pride parade will find one ~20 minutes away in Nice (the Pink Parade, mid-July).
