Seattle welcomes everyone in a city that
is safe and friendly to all.
Just east of downtown, the Capitol Hill neighborhood has long been the
city’s gay epicenter, with rainbow-painted crosswalks and many ways to
dive into the LGBTQ scene. Aside from Capitol Hill, there are gay-friend-
ly and gay-owned establishments just about everywhere in town. Summer
features two annual Pride festivals, while the Seattle Men’s Chorus and Se-
attle Women’s Chorus are the largest LGBTQ-identified men’s and women’s
choruses in the world. It’s pretty clear that in Seattle, we take pride in every-
body.
