Many cities establish publicly gay-owned accommodations, nightclubs and so on. However, few make the kind of concerted citywide, legislative, cultural and marketing pushes to attract -- and keep -- LGBT tourism flowing year after year. All of the cities nominated for this award offer leading gay travel services, amenities, activities and support -- but alas, only one can be crowned queen.
The 2008 PlanetOut Travel Award for best international city goes to: Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires is not known as the Latin Paris for nothing -- but the city's charm, cosmopolitan sophistication and boisterous LGBT nightlife are all its own.
