You probably thought pride was over, but there’s still two left in great international cities: Rio and Atlanta. And Palm Springs is right around the corner. Take a minute to check out these final events of the season–it will be a long, cold Winter before we take over the streets of our cities again. Thank god for gay ski weeks.
Rio de Janeiro Pride — October 29-November 2
Last year there were an estimated 1.2 million participants at Rio Pride–in other words, don’t miss out on this if you can help it. Enjoy the carnival-like spirit of the event, and take in the stunning coastline before the festivities kick off.

Atlanta Pride — October 30-November 1
This year the Atlanta City Counsel voted to extend bar hours for the Sunday night of Pride (under normal circumstances bars close at midnight on Sundays). Bars will serve until 2:30am, and stay open until 3am. So save some energy for Sunday and go out with a bang.

Palm Springs Pride — November 7-8
You can still count on Palms Springs to deliver outdoor festival-worthy sun. Escape to the desert for one last chance to experience a pride event this year. And if that’s not enough, Palm Springs Leather Pride is the very next week–so pick your poison pleasure.
