At Wild Thang we love all things large, big, massive related to products we sell & with many Pride festivals taking place across the UK and the world Wild Thang love nothing more than seeing human beings celebrating diversity, equality, love & life together ! So this week we feature the worlds biggest pride flag which was revealed in Key West in Florida. It was back in 2003 when Key West unveiled the world’s largest Pride flag, which measured 1.25 miles. It ran the length of Duval Street – 14 blocks to be precise. Duval Street is where most of the island’s gay venues are situated. The flag was created by designer Gilbert Baker who spent three months in Key West assembling the flag. It weighed a massive 3 tons and took about 17600 linear yards of fabric. It took 2000 volunteers to raise the flag in 2003. Where is the world’s biggest Pride flag now? The flag has, since 2003, had sections displayed at global events, including the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada, and Australia’s Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade. They have been shown internationally in Canada, Sweden, Norway, Germany, England and Australia and domestically in cities including Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York and Atlanta.
