LGBT in New Zealand

New Zealand society is generally accepting of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) peoples. The LGBT-friendly environment is epitomised by the fact that there are several members of Parliament who belong to the LGBT community, LGBT rights are protected by the Human Rights Act, and same-sex couples are able to marry as of 2013. Sex between men was decriminalised in 1986. New Zealand has an active LGBT community, with well-attended annual gay pride festivals in most cities.

The 2021 Household Economic Survey, conducted by Statistics New Zealand, estimated there to be 169,500 LGBT+ people aged 18 and over in New Zealand, 4.4 percent of the adult population.[1]
