Experience the Best of Pride 2025 with Avani
Avani Hotels & Resorts is proudly celebrating Pride 2025 across five vibrant destinations. From the stylish rooftops of Bangkok to the rainbow-lit canals of Amsterdam, Avani invites guests to celebrate love, diversity and freedom in all its forms. Perfectly positioned in the heart of each destination, Avani hotels offer more than just stylish stays — they’re a front-row seat to the parades, parties and powerful moments that make Pride an unmissable event.
Bangkok, Thailand
2025 is the year to celebrate Pride in Thailand’s capital city following the country’s legalisation of marriage equality earlier this year. Bangkok is home to not one, but three Avani addresses, each bringing a unique energy to the city’s scene. Avani+ Riverside’s high spirits meet sky-high views with Pride-inspired cocktails and sweeping panoramas at SEEN Restaurant & Bar. Just below, the city’s most daring nightlife destination comes to life at Lost & Found, a theatrical playground of dazzling drag, DJs and live acts that celebrate all forms of self-expression. On Saturday 7 June, Lost & Found hosts a one-night-only celebration themed “Drag Up the Past,” paying tribute to four decades of queer musical icons — from 90s divas to 2020s pop powerhouses. Avani+ Riverside also presents a Pride Month art exhibition from 1–30 June, featuring eight Thai artists. Through sculpture, paintings, and immersive installations, the show celebrates individuality, creativity and LGBTQ+ expression across multiple media.
Across town, Avani Sukhumvit celebrates Pride with vibrant afternoon tea sets created in collaboration with local artists KAKKATOON and Feel Gooood Factory, blending art, culture and lifestyle. Avani Ratchada sets a creative tone with an exclusive Artists Brunch on 1 June, celebrating the launch of a new exhibition by local artist and founder of Caliiico, Thossaporn Chuatong. Headlining the event is Thai singer and LGBTQ+ advocate Thanaphat Wongkhothong (aka Topsie), accompanied by his band, Laboon BrightMoon, performing a soulful, Pride-inspired set to kick off the month’s festivities.
Koh Samui, Thailand
Avani Chaweng Samui and SEEN Beach Club invite guests to shine at SEENturday: Pride Edition on Saturday 28 June. With music, fashion and live shows set against Samui’s tropical coast, the all-day event features DJ Groove’s “Beats of Freedom,” a “Threads of Pride” runway by Lola Boutique Paris, and high-energy performances by DIVA Cabaret. Bringing the weekend to a close is Brunch It, Queen! on Sunday 29 June — a sparkling afternoon of gourmet dining, premium drinks, and show-stopping drag by DIVA Cabaret.
Madrid, Spain
Just a short stroll from the vibrant Chueca district, Avani Alonso Martínez Madrid is at the beating heart of one of Europe’s most spirited Pride festivals. Expect rooftop DJ sets, Pride-themed tapas tastings and guided walking tours through Madrid’s rich LGBTQ+ history, running from late June through early July. This year, Avani Hotels & Resorts steps into the spotlight with its very own vibrant double-decker bus joining the parade. Drenched in colour and bursting with personality, it’s a rolling celebration of Pride, welcoming locals, travellers and guests to party, dance and celebrate love.
Milan, Italy
Pride in Milan celebrates beauty and self-expression, and Avani Palazzo Moscova is right in the heart of it all. This year, the city’s most stylish Pride celebrations culminate on 28 June, when the Milan Pride Parade transforms the streets into a joyful, technicolour festival of love, acceptance and equal rights. One of Italy’s largest LGBTQ+ events, the 2025 edition promises even more energy, creativity and connection, with dazzling performances, community-led events and global Pride spirit. Just steps from the Brera district and moments from the parade route, the hotel’s neoclassical façade will shimmer in rainbow colours all month long – a proud beacon of inclusivity in Italy’s fashion capital.
Amsterdam, Netherlands
At Avani Museum Quarter Amsterdam, guests are just steps from the world-renowned Pride Canal Parade, cruising through the city’s UNESCO-listed waterways in a kaleidoscope of colour. Located near the leafy Vondelpark and the cultural buzz of De Pijp, the hotel is the perfect launchpad for early August’s week-long celebrations. For those looking to experience a deeper connection, This Is Eden offers a unique wellness-meets-party experience blending breathwork, dance and celebration – a liberating way to join with others and celebrate self-expression. Back at the hotel, cocktail pop-ups and art installations keep the energy high and the welcome wide open.
