Torremolinos Pride is a vibrant celebration that has rapidly grown since its inception in 2015. Despite Spain's early adoption of gay marriage in 2005, Torremolinos took some time to establish its own Pride event. It has since blossomed into a significant festival, marking its place as a notable event in the annual LGBTQ+ calendar and attracting over 30,000 participants each year.
The vibrant beachside celebration is back in 2024, with Pride celebrations all over Torremolinos from May 26th to June 2nd.
