For more than four decades, the City of West Hollywood has been home to one of the largest Pride celebrations in the nation. Hundreds of thousands of LGBTQ+ people and allies from around the world traditionally make West Hollywood their regular destination during Pride season. Since its incorporation in 1984, the City of West Hollywood has become one of the most influential cities in the nation for its outspoken advocacy on LGBTQ+ issues. No other city of its size has had a greater impact on the national public policy discourse on fairness and inclusiveness for LGBTQ+ people.
Home to the Rainbow District along Santa Monica Boulevard, which features a concentration of historic LGBTQ clubs, restaurants, and retail shops, the City of West Hollywood consistently tops lists of "most LGBTQ friendly cities" in the nation. More than 40 percent of residents in West Hollywood identify as LGBTQ+ and four of the five members of the West Hollywood City Council are openly gay. The City has advocated for four decades for measures that support LGBTQ+ individuals and the City is in the vanguard of efforts to gain and protect equality for all people on a state, national, and international level. #WeHoPride @WeHoCity
