The next Salento Pride - on 20 June 2020 - will take place in Brindisi, switching destination from Gallipoli where it has taken place since its inception in 2016.
Gallipoli is the beating heart of gay summer in the Salento. But the organisers of Puglia’s most authentic Pride (perhaps why it is also fondly referred to as Puglia Pride) felt that in keeping with inclusivity Salento Pride, now in its 5th year, should be celebrated in the city of Brindisi.
Salento Pride is curated by Ra.Ne (the Rainbow Network), based in Lecce. Follow them on Instagram. The Big Gay Podcast from Puglia were proud sponsors of Salento Pride 2019.
