Looking for 2023 LGBTQIA+ pride wallpapers to celebrate pride month? I’ve got you! I designed 60 free desktop and phone wallpapers to celebrate.
At the request of a blog reader, I started creating and sharing heritage wallpapers for Black History Month in February. Then came Women’s History Month, Jewish American Heritage Month, and AAPI Heritage month … and I plan on continuing.

I really enjoy creating these wallpapers and learning the history.
Pride is celebrated in June, but did you know that we actually celebrate LGBTQIA+ History Month in October?
National Coming Out Day is on October 11 and honors the first marches in Washington for LGBTQIA+ rights in October 1979 and 1987.
The United States didn’t officially recognize October as LGBTQIA+ history month until 1994 when the first openly gay public school teacher in Missouri, Rodney Wilson, came up with the idea.

Here’s a look at the Monday start phone wallpaper options. Don’t forget, I also share these in Sunday start and no calendar versions as well.
Below are the no calendar desktop options. I like to use these quote a bit so I feel like less of a slacker keeping them up longer than a month. 🙂
And finally, here are the no calendar phone wallpapers.
So many options for you!
