TikTok has unveiled its Pride Month programming 2025, a full line up of events and content supporting LGBTQIA+ visibility, education, and celebration. From livestreams and webinars to in-person meetups, TikTok is highlighting creators, spotlighting queer-owned businesses, and educating audiences across the globe.
“At TikTok, we’re focused on amplifying LGBTQIA+ voices as they connect with global audiences, grow their careers, and create a meaningful impact on TikTok and beyond. Throughout June and beyond, we invite everyone to join the celebration. Our curated hashtag pages #ForYourPride and #PrideTikTok will feature inspiring stories from queer creators, artists, and LGBTQIA+ owned businesses.”
First off, TikTok’s hosting a fireside chat with @thelipsticklesbians, to discuss how the platform has helped them amplify their messages of inclusion and acceptance.
The duo were featured as part of TikTok’s “Visionary Voices,” initiative for Pride Month last year, and have shared how the platform has helped them and impacted their lives.
