Visit Denver has joined a robust network of destinations as a member of The International LGBTQ+ Travel Association (IGLTA), the world’s leading network of LGBTQ+-welcoming tourism businesses.
IGLTA was created to provide travel resources and information while continuously working to promote equality and safety within LGBTQ+ tourism worldwide. Visit Denver’s membership further solidifies the city’s commitment to fostering a welcoming environment for all travellers.
“We are excited to welcome Visit Denver to the IGLTA network,” said John Tanzella (he/him), IGLTA President/CEO. “Their membership will unlock opportunities to connect with LGBTQ+ travellers around the world and tap into our global resources to promote authentic travel experiences. We look forward to highlighting the city’s diverse offerings to a broader audience.”
As the largest city in a 600-mile radius, Denver attracts members of the LGBTQ+ community from all over the West and the world, resulting in a well-established gay nightlife, welcoming neighbourhoods, LGBTQ+-friendly hotels and numerous annual events that draw huge crowds.
“IGLTA membership allows Visit Denver to connect with the LGBTQ+ traveller on a global scale,” said Flavia Light, vice-president, chief tourism development officer at Visit Denver. “With an array of hotels, restaurants, activities and attractions that are welcoming to travellers from all walks of life, Denver is an ideal destination for this community.”
