Having been postponed from May, Bangkok’s first pride parade in over a decade is now scheduled for Nov 27-Dec 3. One of the main organizers of the six-day celebration of diversity is OUT BKK, a non-profit, non-governmental organization that aims to serve the needs of Bangkok’s LGBTIQ+ community. We spoke to founder Paul Heymans and transgender program manager Shane Bhatla about the planning process and the difficulties of being queer in Thailand.

It will now take place in November instead of May, out of respect for the late king.

Six-day celebration of diversity to take place this May.
