Eurovision (this year in Malmö, Sweden) is a big motivator for European and other gay travelers

SVT/EBU The world´s premier song contest - and likened by many to a LGBTQ blockbuster event on the order of the World Cup or U.S. Super Bowl - just completed its spectacular 68th edition with the usual lineup of singing, dancing, special effects, silliness and seriousness, pulling in a TV audience of hundreds of millions plus many thousands of fans who flocked to Sweden´s third city from 90 countries (and I´ll venture to say more than half of them were gay). Plus this year there was a degree…

3 of Europe's most gay/LGBTQ-welcoming cities

SolStock Welcome once again to Pride month, celebrated in increasing numbers of destinations around the world - although also under pressure in some of them, sadly even including part of the United States, the very country where the celebration of Pride originated. Of course, depending on where you go, travelling while LGBT+ can be a challenge, particularly if you're with a same-sex partner and/or if you are visibly queer. Sadly, there are still many countries where being gay is still…

LGBTQ+ Danger Index rates countries for both locals and visitors

Just came across a Guardian piece published a few weeks ago with some interesting findings from something called the LGBTQ+ Danger Index, which ranks the world's 150 most-visited countries using eight factors, including legalized same-sex marriage, worker protection and whether, based on Gallup poll findings, it is a good place to live. Sweden comes in first, followed by Canada, Norway, Portugal and Belgium. My adopted country Spain comes in at number 10, but my native country the USA is just…

    Tourism officials in California hope that gays from around the country will opt to get married in sunny California, infusing money into the fiscally-challenged state.

    Do you think the legalization of gay marriages in CA will, in fact, be a substantial boon to tourism?

  • And Mexico City, which already legalized gay marriage, offers a honeymoon to the first same-sex couple to wed in Argentina. Great gesture, and a brillliant PR move to capitalize on this historic moment and remind travelers that Mexico City is also gay-friendly!
  • Argentina legalizes same-sex marriage, making this destination already popular with gay men and women likely to attract more and more tourists that demand to be treated with dignity and respect. America, once the beacon of liberty for humankind, should be embarrassed to see others lead the way into a future of equality and justice.
