The striking, dramatic skyline of downtown Seattle frames the shoreline of Elliot Bay in the beautiful Puget Sound region of Washington State. This bustling metropolis of over 1.5 million people has a relaxed, west coast, gay friendly attitude and is home to a thriving, visible gay community.

The focal center of GLBT life in Seattle is known as the Capitol Hill district overlooking the downtown core, which is easily accessed on foot, by taxi or a short transit ride. Capitol Hill has a charming residential area and is home to an eclectic mix of trendy shops, restaurants, bars, pubs and dance clubs. We are pleased to provide you with photo images of Seattle Pride Day festivities.
