The UK has dropped six places in ILGA-Europe’s Rainbow Map, as Hungary and Georgia also register steep falls tracking anti-LGBTI legislation. The data highlights how rollbacks on LGBTI human rights are part of a broader erosion of democratic protections across Europe. Read more in our press release.
“Moves in the UK, Hungary, Georgia and beyond signal not just isolated regressions, but a coordinated global backlash aimed at erasing LGBTI rights, cynically framed as the defence of tradition or public stability, but in reality designed to entrench discrimination and suppress dissent.”
- Katrin Hugendubel, Advocacy Director, ILGA-Europe

Gay Travel Index: Most LGBTQ+-friendly travel destinations
For many people, camping is the epitome of freedom. The liberty to let yourself be driven by the want to travel, to travel exactly where it is most beautiful and to spend the night in your own home on four wheels where you like it best. Unfortunately, this feeling of independence is not always a given, especially for travellers from the LGBTQ+ group. Unfortunately, people still run-in intolerance, prejudice, restrictions and sometimes even persecution because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. Travellers from the LGBTQ+ group therefore often have to choose their travel destinations even more carefully - even when it comes to camping. How free and safe are people from the queer group in different holiday destinations? Where can they touch safe and welcome and meet like-minded people? The Spartacus Gay Travel Index takes a closer observe at holiday destinations in Europe and around the world and assesses how LGBTQ+-friendly or unfriendly they are 🏳️🌈

1. Mexico
Of the 65 countries I’ve visited so far, Mexico is my favorite place to be queer. I’ve never spent time in a place where queer culture felt so ingrained in my everyday experience (maybe with the exception of my home country of the UK) and in my personal experience, it seemed to be one of the most gay-friendly countries in the world.
I felt like I could be my proudest, most bold lgbtq+ self while in Mexico, and that's why I’m beautiful certain I’ll conclusion up back there one day.
From a legal perspective, there are strong anti-discrimination laws in place to protect gender non-conforming residents from dislike crimes, and trans person rights are also pretty progressive. Neutrois gender identity is recognized (gender reassignment surgery isn't required to legally switch gender), gender-affirming look after is legal, and the government chose to ban conversion therapy back in
I’ve spent a couple of years living on and off in Mexico and have based myself in a few different cities, so I’m sharing my top three spots:
Mexico City for the Huge Queer Pride Parade
Mexico Metropolis (CDMX) is place to one
