Los Montesinos is a small inland town behind the Costa Blanca coast, and its Pride day is a young one — the campaigning march through the streets only started the year before. That makes it feel more like a community event than a big-city spectacle. Expect a pasacalle winding through the town with rainbow flags out, organised by the local equality office, with a few short speeches about visibility and rights along the way.
Things carry on into the evening with performances bringing locals and visitors together. The full line-up and poster tend to land only a few weeks ahead, so check before you set off. It's free, friendly and refreshingly unpolished — worth a detour if you're staying nearby and fancy something with a bit of heart rather than the usual tourist crowd.
