Stockholm. You belong here.

LGBTQ, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender travel to Stockholm, Sweden.

The Swedish capital of Stockholm is effortlessly cool yet fiercely welcoming, a city where rainbow flags flutter alongside centuries-old cobblestones and narrow streets meet open minds. Renowned as one of the world’s most inclusive destinations, it invites LGBTQ+ travellers to experience genuine belonging through its deeply rooted values of openness and equality. All year round, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer visitors discover freedom in every corner: from welcoming places to stay and fabulous attractions to award-winning restaurants, spectacular Pride festivities and nightlife. Beyond the chilled, urban buzz lies the archipelago’s unspoilt beauty – a reminder that nature, too, belongs to everyone.

In Stockholm, safety and inclusion are woven into daily life. Women play a major role in government and business, gender-neutral bathrooms are standard, and diversity isn’t a buzzword but a way of being. Whatever the length of your stay, the city encourages you to live out loud, secure in the knowledge that you’re embraced by a community that truly cares. Central to this spirit is Stockholm LGBT – the city’s rainbow family – which, in partnership with Visit Stockholm, connects LGBTQ+ visitors to a network of world-class tourism providers. From luxury and boutique hotels and acclaimed restaurants to seamless transport and community-led events, every partner shares a commitment to a safe, joyful and affirming experience, all in upholding the city’s reputation as one of the most – if not the most – inclusive places to visit in the world.
