Pink Dot HK: Hong Kong's Family-Friendly, LGBT+ Carnival Celebrated its Fifth Anniversary!



Pink Dot Hong Kong celebrated its fifth anniversary on October 12th, with an astounding 12,000+ families attending this day of diversity.  This is the largest annual LGBT+ event in Hong Kong, a fun, free-for-all carnival and outdoor concert for LGBT+ and their allies, families, friends, and colleagues in celebration of love, diversity and equality. The organizers of the Gay Games Hong Kong 2022 were proud to be in attendance! The team truly enjoyed the day-long celebration of love and acceptance, supporting diversity and equality.

To mark the auspicious occasion, Pink Dot HK took the theme #It5Love-- encouraging photos and diversity to be tagged across social media with this theme. Pink Dot HK 2018 was co-organised by Big Love Alliance, Covenant of the Rainbow and Qlove.
