The global LGBT travel market is worth more than $211bn a year, and KZN wants a piece of it

The city of Durban, mainly known for its traditional and conservative culture, is pulling out all stops to get a slice of the lucrative local and international gay and lesbian tourist market in its effort to increase tourist numbers to more than five million a year.

Last month, Durban hosted its ninth Durban Gay Pride march that attracted thousands of marchers, exhibitors and spectators from around the country, many of which are members of the LGBT community. “[The authorities] have told us that they want to reach the magical number of 5-million tourists annually and they believe that the LGBT community is very important.
