As a prelude to the festive spirit of Vallarta Pride, on May 17 there will be a march for the occasion of Global Day Against Homophobia. The march will join similar marches around the world in commemorating the anniversary of the elimination of homosexuality from the catalog of mental illnesses by the WHO World Health Organization. The march extends from the Sheraton to Los Arcos downtown Puerto Vallarta.
The beginning of this cultural and festive week will be marked by the walk at dusk on Sunday, May 20, which serves as a memorial for the people who lost the fight to AIDS and acts to promote awareness about the struggle against this disease and the importance of prevention.
