Atlanta Pride

Though it doesn't last long, Atlanta Pride is one of the most important LGBTQ+ events of the South. Starting with the Friday night kickoff party and ending with the DILF Tea Dance, Atlanta Pride has no shortage of incredible events. Of course, there's the Pride March and rotating calendar of circuit parties to prepare for as well. And if the "G" part of LGBTQ+ doesn't quite cut it for you, there's also a Trans March, Dyke March, and Bi & Pan March. As for where to stay, the Courtyard Midtown is a good choice. But really, anywhere downtown is a good bet.
