Layover: Frankfurt

Frankfurt might not top most lists of European vacation spots, but this vibrant German city deserves some love. Often seen only as an international gateway, Frankfurt offers plenty to enjoy for LGBTQ travelers and others whether you’re here for a quick layover or a few days of exploration.

Outtake: Oktoberfest 🇩🇪 🍻

When it comes to travel in Europe, Oktoberfest is an iconic experience unlike any other and with gay events like Rosa Weisn and Prosecco Weisn, it’s a great LGBTQ event too. Here’s what I knew—and wish I knew before going.

One Week: Munich

Oktoberfest in Munich has long been on my bucket list—especially the famous Rosa Wiesn (Gay Sunday). Often overlooked as a queer destination, Munich is actually one of Europe’s most LGBTQ-friendly cities, offering everything from lively beer tents and Pride celebrations to rich culture and welcoming nightlife.
