Shanghai Pride () is an annual LGBT pride event that takes place in Shanghai, China. It was first held in 2009 and was significant in that it was first time a mass LGBT event has taken place in mainland China.〔 ShanghaiPride is now in its 6th consecutive year. ==Event history== In 2009 event was held for the first time from 7 June to 13 June 2009.〔 No parade took place as the legal advice sought by the organisers indicated that Chinese authorities would not approve of a parade taking place in the city. Instead, the event was celebrated as a pride festival with cultural events.〔 Organizers stated that this was the first LGBT festival in China; there are individuals, mostly Chinese LGBT activists, who say that there were organized LGBT events that occurred prior to Shanghai Pride.〔Bao, Hongwei, p. 98.〕 The festival featured events such as an art exhibition and film screenings. There was also a large party hosted by a privately owned venue. Three thousand people from China and other countries attended the festival.〔 There was also to be a raffle to raise money for the Chiheng Foundation AIDS Orphans project. In 2010 the event was held during October, directly following the closing days of the Shanghai Expo, over a 3-week period. In 2011 the event was again held during October, this time in over 9 days. For the 2012 event, the organisers have announced that it will move back to June and be held over 9 days. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shanghai Pride」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
