Pink Dot SG

Pink Dot SG, known exonymously as Pink Dot, is an event that has occurred annually since 2009 in support of the LGBT community in Singapore. Attendees of Pink Dot events gather to form a "pink dot" to show support for inclusiveness, diversity and the freedom to love in the country. Pink Dot events typically include concert performances and booths sponsored by organizations that support the LGBT community and cause in addition to the event's name-brand formation.

The success of Pink Dot in Singapore has inspired similar events in several other countries, leading to the event to become known as Pink Dot SG — SG being an initialism for Singapore. It has been held each year in Singapore from 2009 to 2019 at the Speakers' Corner in Hong Lim Park on a Saturday in the months of May, June or July. The 2020 and 2021 editions were held as online livestreams, in view of the global COVID-19 pandemic. The 2022 edition was held in-person once again in June.

This year, back to Singapore in June, walking from Orchard to Chinatown, passed by Hong Lim Park and realised that the infamous Pink Dot event was going on. 

 

Stopped for a while to snap some photo, was unable to really join in because one of us is a foreigner and as a foreigner he is not allow to participe in the event. 

Nevertheless, still feel amazing to be able to witness the event in Singapore.
