Welcome to Alexandria!
“Welcome to Alexandria, Virginia! Since moving here, my husband and I have been embraced by this warm and welcoming community. And it’s no wonder – Alexandria has received a 100% score from the Human Rights Coalition on LGBTQ+ equality for five consecutive years. We can’t wait to welcome the attendees of WorldPride 2025 in Alexandria, just across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C. Happy Pride!”
