An Essential Guide to LGBTQ+ Philadelphia
Philadelphia, the nation’s birthplace and one of the most welcoming cities for the LGBTQ+ community, is proud of the historic roles it has played — and plays still — in the founding, advancement and celebration of the LGBTQ+ Civil Rights movement.
In Philadelphia hosted the country’s first major demonstration for gay rights, the Annual Reminders protests outside Independence Hall. That matching year, a Rittenhouse Square diner was the site of one of the nation’s first LGBTQ+ sit-in protests. Then in , the first-ever national march for LGBTQ+ Rights was organized at Arch Street Meeting House.
Today, visitors can discover the city’s eminent Gayborhood and explore important LGBTQ+ landmarks like Philly AIDS Thrift @ Giovanni&#;s Room (the oldest LGBTQ+ bookstore in the nation) and Tavern on Camac (Philadelphia’s oldest operating LGBTQ+ bar), along with fantastic shopping and dining. The neighborhood also hosts annual events like the Philadelphia Pride March and Festival and OURfest.
