For the first time a Gay House will be opened during the Olympic Games. Holland House for instance is legend not only at the Olympics but also at the Gay Games and Outgames.The goal of Pride House is to help commemorate and enhance the Olympic experience by including all people and celebrating diversity while creating a dialogue on homophobia and transphobia within sports. Pride House will represent the global LGBT community while InterPride will represent Pride organizations worldwide. It will offer athletes and visitors attending the Olympics and Paralympics a new perspective on the Games.
Dean Nelson, an organizer for Pride House, where gay, lesbian and other athletes will be able to socialize at the Vancouver Olympics says that “Pride House is going to rock the Olympics.”
PRIDE House will be open from February 8th through to March 21st and will take in three incredible events: The Olympics (Feb. 12-28), WinterPRIDE in Whistler (Mar. 1-8), and the Paralympics (Mar. 12-21).
