About Lisbon and its lgbtq+ life
Since the s Lisbon (Lisboa) became one of the new steaming spots for travellers in Europe. It was European Capital of Culture in , in the Society Expo was held in Lisbon and in the European Football Championship.
Vivid, small and steep historical streets, modernised areas, an extensive nightlife till early morning and a fresh breeze from the sea even in hot summers make Lisbon a pleasant place for relaxing, sightseeing and going out altogether.

Annual gay highlights and enormous events in Lisbon are the Bear Pride in May, the Marcha execute Orgulho LGBTI and Arraial Lisboa Pride in June, the film festival Queer Lisboa in September and the huge technology conference Web Summit in November.
