Every color of the rainbow will take over Thailand this June — and you're invited to the most joyful uprising of the year. Flags up, let’s make some noise for love, equality, and everything in between!
Bangkok Pride Festival 2025
The Bangkok Pride Festival 2025 is where people come together to celebrate who they are and who they love. The celebration in Bangkok is one of Thailand’s biggest celebrations of LGBTQIAN+ pride, diversity, and equality. What began as a march for visibility has transformed into a city-wide festival that brings together communities, allies, activists, and artists. It’s a space for voices to rise, rights to be claimed, and joy to be shared — all while serving head-turning looks and heartfelt love.
Highlights of the Bangkok Pride Festival 2025
This year’s Bangkok Pride Festival embraces the powerful theme “Born This Way”, celebrating the beauty of freedom to live and love openly.
On June 1, the Bangkok Pride Parade will begin at the open space in front of National Stadium at 3 PM onwards, heading along Rama I Road for 2.5 kilometers, and ending at CentralWorld Plaza. A highlight of the parade will be the 200-meter-long identity flag, symbolizing unity and the diverse spectrum of identities within the LGBTQIAN+ community.
When and Where It Happens
The Bangkok Pride Festival runs from 30 May to 1 June 2025. The main parade will take place on Sunday, 1 June, marching proudly from National Stadium Intersection to Ratchaprasong Intersection, right through the heart of the city.
Surrounding the parade route, you’ll find events, art exhibitions, live performances, and community booths lighting up the area, transforming the streets into a moving, glittering statement of love and equality.
Travel and Preparation Tips for Pride-Goers
You’ll want sunscreen, a water bottle (stay hydrated!), rainbow everything, and maybe a mini fan for the midday heat. And remember: the vibe is come-as-you-are, but extra sparkle is always welcome at the Bangkok Pride Festival. And don’t forget to stay near areas like Siam or Silom for the best access.
If you're planning to watch the parade along the roadside — especially near CentralWorld — grab your spot early! While the general public won’t be able to join the march itself, you’re more than welcome to cheer, wave, and celebrate from the sidelines. The vibe is joyful, respectful, and proudly loud — so bring your energy and show your love.
Beyond the Parade: Pride Takes Over Bangkok's Icons
Pride doesn’t stop at the parade — it takes over the whole city. This year, ONESIAM brings “The Celebration: Right to Love” to life across its iconic shopping and cultural destinations: Siam Center, Siam Discovery, Siam Paragon, and ICONSIAM. From May 30 to June 30, each location becomes a Pride-powered hub of art, fashion, drag, and community connection. Here’s what to expect:
