London Set To Host WorldPride

For those of you who like to plan your travel years in advance, London is the place to be in 2012.

In addition to hosting The Queens Diamond Jubilee and the Olympic Games, London will be the site of WorldPride in 2012.

The home of Queen Elizabeth, Big Ben and Madonna (well, at least for now) was chosen as the host city for WorldPride by attendees of the 27th Annual World Conference of InterPride (The International Association of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex Pride Coordinators).

The organizers, who will soon launch a WorldPride Web site with all the details, promise an event "on a truly mammoth scale." Hey, the bigger, the better in my book.
