From Parades to Paradises: Pride Month Destinations That Double as Vacay Goals
Pride Month isn’t just a celebration—it’s a movement, a mood, a reason to book that flight you’ve been eyeing since January. And because you deserve main character energy all month long, we pulled together destinations that serve both rainbow-filled revelry and sun-soaked serenity.

Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺
Home to Mardi Gras like no other, Sydney brings the sparkle with its vibrant LGBTQIA+ scene year-round—but it turns it up even more during Pride. After the festivities? You’re a short drive away from beaches like Bondi or a coastal walk to Coogee. Sun, surf, and self-expression? Yes, please.
🌈 Wink Tip: Pack your SPF and get a Laser Hair Removal sesh before flying out for smooth sailing from parade to poolside.

Barcelona, Spain 🇪🇸
Pride in Barcelona hits different. The city is loud, proud, and full of life. Think open plazas, historic architecture, and a beachfront that transforms into a dance floor post-sunset. Oh, and did we mention the tapas? 😮💨
🌈 Wink Tip: Get the Laser Facial Duo Program before takeoff—your skin deserves to match the energy.

Siargao, Philippines 🇵🇭
Not a typical Pride destination, but hear us out. Siargao’s laid-back, love-who-you-love energy makes it the ultimate post-parade detox. After the glitter, go barefoot, book a hut, and surf the waves (or sip on coconut water in peace).
🌈 Wink Tip: Our Wink babes love Siargao for solo resets or slow travel with their favorite person. And yep, your bikini line will thank you if you’ve been Winked.

New York City, USA 🇺🇸
The birthplace of Pride. NYC is where history meets high energy, and June is practically one long celebration. From the iconic parade to rooftop parties in Brooklyn, you’ll never run out of things to do—or people to dance with.
🌈 Wink Tip: NYC’s summer sun and sleeveless fits hit different when your underarms are bright and confident. Book a Laser Whitening session before you fly out, because skin that’s even-toned and ready to party? That’s the move.
