Uniting Hearts: Avani+ Samui Celebrates Love and Equality with “Marry Go Loud” LGBTQIAN+ Marriage Registration Event
Koh Samui, 24 June 2024: In a vibrant celebration of love and equality, Avani+ Samui Resort proudly joins forces with Pride Nation Samui International Festival, Thailand’s largest LGBTQIAN+ event, to announce the groundbreaking “Marriage Equality: Marry Go Loud” festivities from 24 to 28 June 2024. Against the backdrop of the recently passed Marriage Equality Bill, Koh Samui will host an electrifying music festival that will turn the island into a true PRIDEradise before culminating in the iconic Pride Sunset Parade.
LGBTQIAN+ couples in attendance who want to celebrate their love with a symbolic gesture can do so by taking part in a historic “Marriage Equality: Marry Go Loud” registration ceremony taking place on the breezy beachfront of Avani+ Samui from 24 to 28 June. As part of the event, each couple will receive an unofficial marriage certificate presented as a heartfelt tribute to their commitment by the Pride Nation Samui International Officer who will be officiating the unions.
The festivities will reach their peak on 28 June with a special programme featuring Porsch - Apiwat Apiwatseri and Arm - Sappanyoo Panatkool, lead actors from the series “Ai Long Nhai” and an inspiring real-life LGBTQIAN+ couple. The duo will celebrate their journey of love spanning over 14 years by registering their union at Avani+ Samui.
“Avani+ Samui is honoured to contribute to this momentous celebration,” said Stephan Rohrer, General Manager at Avani+ Samui Resort. “As proud supporters of the LGBTQIAN+ movement, we are excited to be at the centre of this year’s celebrations as Thailand takes another step towards becoming one of the world’s most Pride-friendly destinations, embracing love in all its forms.”
