Welcome to Baltimore!
We can’t wait for you to explore Charm City. Wherever you go, Baltimore’s diverse neighborhoods and colorful character are sure to make you feel right at home.
Our world-class museums and exciting festivals bring together people from all walks of life for special cultural experiences, including Baltimore Pride, one of the oldest pride celebrations in the country. While the heart of our LGBTQ community can be found in the historic Mount Vernon neighborhood, you will find restaurants, bars and businesses showcasing Baltimore’s namesake charm in every corner of our city.
We hope this guide will help you navigate local experiences, food and fun to enhance your visit to Baltimore. We invite you to discover the Baltimore you’re missing and encourage you to share your experiences with friends, family and followers on social media using #MyBmore. Thank you for visiting Baltimore — we are delighted to host you!
Sincerely yours,
