Copenhagen has got the world’s first permanent rainbow flag, right next to the City Hall in the Danish capital.

The flag shall honour the Danish LGBTQ community and celebrate love and diversity.

“We are extremely pleased to have raised a flagpole in Copenhagen, where the rainbow flag will flag permanently. It shows the strength of our overall environment. And we are delighted that Copenhagen again shows that diversity and gender equality are highly established values in our city, “says Lars Henriksen, head of Copenhagen Pride to Blikk.no.
