Celebrate Tel Aviv Pride at A23
Every June the city of Tel Aviv gets dressed up in rainbow colors and thousands flock to the city that was dubbed by the New York Times the ‘Mediterranean Capital of Cool’ to enjoy a choc-a-block week of amazing LGBT-friendly events, culminating with the famous Tel Aviv Gay Pride Parade on the Friday. Starting in the morning with activities for the whole family, the parade is attended by hundreds of thousands of Israelis and tourists.
Tel Aviv is also known as one of the gayest cities in the world. In fact, around 25% of the population of this buzzing city are gay! Tel Aviv is colorful and creative, open and accepting. Everywhere you go in the city is welcoming and gay friendly. You’ll find gay hotels, clubs, bars, and Tel Aviv even has its own gay beach!
