Chueca - LGBT

LGBT

The neighborhood has become a popular area for Madrid's gay community, with a lot of LGBT or LGBT friendly shops. Since Madrid has hosted the Europride in 2007, the Gay Pride march has evolved to the biggest gay festival in the world. During 5 days at the beginning of the summer, Chueca is very attractive, with 5 scenes in the squares, and hundreds of outdoor bars, allowing hundreds of thousands people partying. In 2012 more than 300.000 foreign people went in Madrid for the LGBT feasts, most of them visiting and having fun in Chueca.
