GAY TIMES Honours 2022 will recognise LGBTQ+ people who have made a profound impact on community and culture over the past 12 months.This year we have been reflecting on the past 50 years since the very first Pride March took place in the UK. But for GAY TIMES Honours 2022, we are taking it 50 years into the future to imagine what queer community, culture and nightlife will be in the decades to come.
Our Future Queer 2072 theme will embrace the future of nightlife through special artist installations, roaming performer moments and our editorial and social content.
GAY TIMES Honours 2022 is proudly sponsored by Meta Quest 2, which fosters social connection by bringing people together to share in the everyday, extraordinary, innovative experiences through virtual reality and the metaverse.

GAY TIMES recently partnered with Hinge for their NFAQ (Not So Frequently Asked Questions) campaign, which spotlights and offers dating and relationship advice to LGBTQ+ people using their platform. This will be reflected further as part of GAY TIMES Honours 2022.
SKITTLES® and GAY TIMES are currently offering bursaries to support the careers of young LGBTQ+ photographers in a bid to help build out queer archives for generations to come, partnering with Queer Britain and Getty Images for the innovative initiative.
To ensure GAY TIMES Honours 2022 is a free-to-attend event for the community, we’d like to further thank our category sponsors CUPRA, Coca-Cola, Jean Paul Gaultier, Getty Images and Heineken Silver.
