Last year’s party was no joke. Parliament passed legislation in June of 2024 to make Thailand the first country in Southeast Asia to legalize gay marriage—kicking of one heck of a celebration. Finally becoming legal in September of last year, this is the first Bangkok Pride with marriage equality and we are here for it. This list is coming at you early, so we’ll be updating it every Monday until June 16. Expect this list to get a lot bigger. We’ll see you in the streets.
