Seoul Queer Culture Festival (SQCF; Korean: 서울퀴어문화축제; RR: Seoul kwieo munhwa chukje), formerly Korea Queer Culture Festival (KQCF; Korean: 한국퀴어문화축제; RR: Hanguk kwieo munhwa chukje), is an annual modern Korean festival on LGBT rights. It includes a pride parade and film festival events. The festival lasts for a week or two, and usually takes place in late May to early June. As it was the only queer culture festival in Korea until 2009, when Daegu Queer Culture Festival began, it was also commonly called Korea Queer Festival or Queer Culture Festival. The event is Korea's largest LGBT festival.
