Hanoi Pride is an annual series of events which celebrates lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ+) life in Hanoi, Vietnam.[1][2]
The first pride in Hanoi was celebrated in 2012, and has been celebrated annually since.[3][4] In 2015, openly gay United States Ambassador to Vietnam Ted Osius attended the event.[5][6] In 2020 and 2021, the event was held online due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] In-person celebrations resumed in 2022.[8]
