Description
ORLANDO
The city that never stops growing offers unique experiences and guarantees an unforgettable holiday for all visitors. For instance, if thrill-seeking is your style, you won’t be able to get enough of our theme parks, water parks and attractions. Or, head to the great outdoors for unbeatable ecotourism adventures and one-of-a-kind opportunities to watch and play sports, including more than 150 golf courses and the United States Tennis Association National Campus. What else do you demand from a perfect vacation? World-class shopping? Acclaimed arts and culture? Luxurious spas? All that and a lot more is waiting for you in Orlando.
Orlando is famous among LGBTQI+ travelers, and live entertainment at venues in and close to downtown has much to do with it. Every year we gain new resources and experiences. Our cultural offerings expand. Our restaurants and chefs are most acclaimed. In short, and as recent additions to our theme parks and new and updated attractions throughout the destination can attest, Orlando is constantly evolving.
The GayDayS® celebration began in 1991 with a theme park visit, to this very day theme park visits remain one of the most popular GayDayS® activities. Always the first Saturday in June (from 2019, was changed to the third week of August), GayDayS® at Disney’s Magic Kingdom (at Walt Disney World) is still the signature event of the week. An estimated 50,000 redshirted Gay DayS® attendees pack Walt Disney World’s most popular park. The 3 o’clock parade down Main Street always draws an unforgettable “sea of red” that can be seen from one end of the park to the other.
Pool Parties – Orlando is the perfect place to spend your days soaking up the hot sun and hot scenery around a sparkling hotel swimming pool. This low-stress treat gets even better when you’re surrounded by hundreds of guys and gals in Speedos and bikinis, sipping umbrella drinks and grooving to the sounds of some of the world’s best-known DJs! Pool parties will be held Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at the GayDayS® Host Hotel.
Hotel Events including the GayDayS® Expo, Cocktail Parties, Pool Parties, Shows & Special Events, etc…!
City Parties – There are also main events around town such as the Parliament House, and there are parties for both women and men.
Fernando Escarião, is a Brazilian Youtuber and singer invited by Costa Brasil Tours, will accompany the group on this trip. “Escarião” became known on the internet since the end of 2014 when he started to record videos for the extinct Vine app, and gaining notoriety with humor videos, he started his Youtube channel that today has more than 475 thousand followers.
