Pride Around the World 2004
compiled by Skeeter Sanders
With Vermont's Pride celebration in Burlington pushed back to July 10 this year, queer Vermonters have more of an opportunity to travel to any Pride celebration around the world that their imagination - and budget - will take them.
Boston Pride Weekend (June 11-13) is sure to draw the biggest crowds in its 32-year history, now that same-gender couples can legally marry in the Bay State - and June is the traditional month of weddings.
This year also marks the 35th anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in New York - without which we wouldn't have anything to celebrate.
Events are listed in aphabetical order by city (Thanks again this year to InterPride). So choose a city, contact your travel agent and start packing!
