The 3rd Viet Pride Festival (Vietnamese Gay Pride Festival) will take place in Hanoi, on the 01st, 2nd, and 3rd of August, themed as “Together”. Continuing the momentum, Viet Pride 2014 aims to raise awareness of sexual diversity and the right to love that every person is entitled to. The agenda also includes activities that forge the connection and solidarity amongst diverse LGBTQ groups from all over the country.
The 3 days of Viet Pride 2014 will be celebrated with numerous activities centered on the subject of LGBTQ such as talks, conferences, film screenings… (many are on free admission basis).
The capstone Viet Pride Bike Rally will be held on the 3rd day (August 3rd) followed by an outdoor party at American Club with free beer and music for bikers!
