Taiwan Pride (Chinese: 臺灣同志遊行) is the annual LGBTQ pride parade in Taiwan. The parade was first held in 2003. Although joined by groups from all over the country, the primary location has always been the capital city of Taipei. The parade held in October 2019 attracted more than 200,000 participants, making it the largest gay pride event in East Asia.[1][2] As of 2019, it is the largest in Asia ahead of Tel Aviv Pride in Israel,[3] which is the largest in the Middle East.[a] Taiwan LGBT Pride Community, the organizer of Taiwan LGBTQ Pride Parade, holds the parade on the last Saturday of October.
