WorldPride

The New York City Subway system commemorated Stonewall 50 - WorldPride NYC 2019 with heart-shaped rainbow logos representing LGBTQ pride, celebrating the largest LGBTQ event in history, with five million attendants in Manhattan for Pride weekend alone.[1]

WorldPride is a series of international LGBT pride events coordinated by InterPride; they are hosted in conjunction with local LGBT pride festivals, with host cities selected via bids voted on during InterPride's annual general meetings. Its core events include opening and closing ceremonies, a pride parade (which may either be the host city's existing pride parade, or a bespoke event organized specifically for WorldPride), and an LGBT human rights conference.[2]

The inaugural WorldPride was held in Rome in 2000.[3][4][5][6] In 2019, it was estimated that Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras—host of WorldPride 2023—would have a 25–40% increase in attendance over normal years, and contribute over AU$664 million to the local economy.[7][2] Due to its scale and the bidding process, WorldPride was colloquially referred to as "the gay Olympics" by Australian media outlets.[7][2]
