Tokyo Rainbow Pride 2022 Festival & Parade in Shibuya,Tokyo was an incredible day of happiness, laughter and fellowship for so many of us...

Being able to parade freely, and confidently, through Shibuya crossing with our flags, music and smiles gave all of us a feeling of acceptance & hope that Japan is slowly but surely growing in inclusivity not only for all the members of our community but for everyone else as well. Life is so much more enjoyable when people are welcomed.

Of course, we must say a magical thank you to all of the sponsors who bravely joined us as well as all of our family & friends who came out in support. The efforts of everyone involved meant so much to us.

After two years of pandemic struggle, we are looking forward to more successful parades in the years to come. Tokyo Rainbow Pride 2023 here we come!
