Slovenia has become the first post-communist country to announce same-sex marriage legalisation in time for the second annual Pink Week celebrations in May.
ON Tuesday, March 3, the Slovenian Parliament voted to legalise same-sex marriages, making Slovenia the first of any former Yugoslavian/Balkan country to pass such a law.
In the past two years, Slovenia has become increasingly popular as one of Europe’ s most LGBT-friendly locations, not least due to the establishing of special LGBT tours and the country’s annual Pink Week, which allows visitors to discover Slovenia’s hidden gems and culinary delights in a single three-night break.
Matej and Mattej, co-creators of Slovenia’s Pink Week, said: “We are absolutely delighted that Slovenia has become the first post-Communist country to legalise same-sex marriage. It is yet more proof that this beautiful country is now one of Europe’s top destinations for LGBT travellers.”
Tourism opportunities for the LGBT tourist in Slovenia include:
LGBT tours: 4 days of wonderful adventures in hand-picked locations throughout Ljubljana and elsewhere in Slovenia. Experiences can include superior spa treatments in the Dolenjska region, night walks around picturesque Ljubljana Old Town with a private guide, half-day tours to Lake Bled or the Slovenian Riviera, morning workouts with a personal trainer and tickets to the signature Dragon Ball.
