Key West Pride is without a doubt one of the hottest pride events in the world. A tropical paradise 90 miles to Cuba, Kew West is the southernmost point in the continental US and the 2017 Pride will take place June 7-11. Key West Pride is the main LGBT event of the year in this idyllic location so popular with gay travelers since the 70s. The gay pride parade will be open to everyone and will take place on Duval Street on Sunday June 11.  This is the opportunity to affirm the city's motto “one human family”.

You'll enjoy plenty of events during these five days of Pride: pool parties, drag shows, sea activities such as kayak or sailing at night. You'll also be able to attend the Stoli Key West Cocktail Classic, a challenge where American bars meet to create the most original cocktail. Spectacular: a rainbow flag about 1.6km long will be unrolled during the Pride parade and will link the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic Ocean along Duval Street.
