LGBTQ+ people flock to Florida for Gay Days festival

Tens of thousands of LGBTQ+ people are attending Gay Days, a decades-long tradition involving theme park rides, parties, and events in Orlando, Florida.
Despite recent anti-LGBTQ+ laws passed by the Florida Legislature, including bans on gender-affirming healthcare for transgender minors and bathroom access, Gay Days organizers are encouraging visitors to attend the celebration as a way to demonstrate that LGBTQ+ people are not going away in the state.
