2025 LGBTQ+ Calendar
Essential observances that highlight pride, awareness and advocacy
I originally created this calendar for my own use, but I wanted to make it accessible for those working in education, journalism, human resources, or the nonprofit sector. Feel free to bookmark and share it with anyone who might find these key dates useful.
If you appreciate resources like this, please consider supporting Rey and the Archive for $5/month. Your contribution helps sustain the creation of tools like this and supports the ongoing work of a BIPOC transgender writer.
