Gay Days Anaheim is an annual event at Disneyland where the LGBT community can partake in festivities both inside and outside the park. The first Gay Days Anaheim in 1998 attracted about 2,500 people. In 2006, about 30,000 attended. This will be the 10th Gay Day in the park, as Disneyland celebrates its “Year of a Million Dreams.”
This year’s festivities run from October 5-8. See gaydaysanaheim.com for details on the event.
