Digital Pride, the trailblazing virtual festival from Gay Star News celebrating everything LGBTI, is back.

The online event launches today, Monday 23 April 2018, with virtual performances, interviews and panel discussions planned throughout the week.

Digital Pride climaxes on Saturday 28 April, with a livestream of an LGBTI clubnight from iconic London venue Fire.

Now in its third year, in 2017 Digital Pride reached 55 million individuals around the world.

Now, we’re calling on more LGBTI people from around the world than ever before to get involved!

This includes those in remote locations who can’t access physical Pride events. As well, of course, as those in LGBTI-unfriendly countries. No matter where you are, all you need to join in is a working internet connection!

To get involved and check out our exclusive Digital Pride content, visit DigitalPride.com and GayStarNews.com, plus the Digital Pride Facebook and Gay Star News Facebook pages.

You can also check out the Digital Pride Twitter page, and the Gay Star News Twitter page.

Finally, you can also express your support by signing up to our #MillionsofUs Thunderclap. After a 30-second sign up process, you can join a chorus of voices on 26 April by shared an automated tweet that reads as follows:

‘All LGBTI+ people deserve freedom, equality and protection. I am one of Millions of Us fighting for this world’

The Thunderclap already boasts the support of British TV star Stephen Fry, iconic film actor George Takei, trans activist and model Munroe Bergdorf and more.

Partners involved in Digital Pride 2018 include:

Clients involved include Age UK, Barclays, Celebrity Cruises, Cottages.com, Deloitte, Heathrow Airport, Hoseasons, Inclusive Retreats, NatWest, Npower, Pink Lady, RBS, Royal Mail, Skittles and Tonic Travel Group.

Get ready to experience a bigger and better Digital Pride in 2018!
