The annual June celebration is known as PRIDE. PRIDE is a celebration of the LGBTQ community and its history, and is celebrated in many cities around the world. It is typically held in June to commemorate the Stonewall Riots of 1969, which were a series of demonstrations by members of the LGBTQ community against a police raid that took place at the Stonewall Inn in New York City. PRIDE events often include parades, festivals, and other activities that celebrate the diversity of the LGBTQ community.
