Orgulho LGBTI+ de Lisboa is the official Pride march, organised by a steering committee of 20 LGBTQ+ associations and collectives, making it one of the most community-rooted Prides in Europe. A separate event, Arraial Lisboa Pride, is a large-scale outdoor festival that typically takes place in the same period. The two have different organisers and usually fall on different weekends, so check dates carefully before booking.

The Pride march traditionally begins at Jardim do Príncipe Real, passes through Largo de Camões, and ends at Ribeira das Naus on the waterfront. The Arraial festival is usually held at Terreiro do Paço, Lisbon's main riverside square. Staying in Príncipe Real, Bairro Alto, or Chiado puts you within easy reach of both.

Hotels in central Lisbon book out fast in June, particularly anything near Príncipe Real and Chiado. Book accommodation as early as possible, and do the same for flights, as demand across the summer is high. Check exact event dates before booking, as they are typically announced relatively late in the year.

Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS) is well connected across Europe and the US, with direct flights from most major cities. From the airport, the metro's red line runs directly into the city centre in around 20 minutes. Lisbon is also accessible by train from Porto and the Algarve via Comboios de Portugal.
