- Description
Gay pride marchers holding rainbow banners in front of the Ohio Statehouse, forming a giant rainbow flag. Gay pride parades, festivals, and events are usually annual celebrations of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender culture, and many take place in June to commemorate the Stonewall riots that took place in Manhattan, New York, on June 28, 1969, seen as a pivotal moment in the LGBT civil rights movement. Columbus held its first annual Pride Parade in 1981, with only 200 attendees. Columbus Pride now includes a parade, festival, 5K run and more, and has an estimated half a million attendees.
