Torremolinos reinvesting in its LGBT culture with busiest summer schedule ever

GAY PARADE e

GAY-PARADETORREMOLINOS is reinvesting in its LGBT culture this summer with four large-scale events planned.

Gay Pride LGBT2 will feature a parade, live performances and DJs, in June, before July’s Wonder Beach will host artists Fangoria and Monarchy.

Mayor Jose Ortiz said it is important to build links with local businesses in order to make the town a truly LGBT-friendly destination.

Europe’s largest gay boat cruise will hit Malaga on July 11, with 2,500 visitors being offered free coach transfers to Bajondillo beach in Torremolinos.

The Mad Bear Beach party will close out the LGBT calendar on August 10, and will see more than 1,500 ‘bears’ – a heavier and hairier subculture of gay men – descend on Torremolinos for six days.
