    Utopia was founded in 1994, by Singaporean, American, and Thai partners, with the goal of creating positive social alternatives for gays and lesbians in the Asian region.

    Utopia opened Southeast Asia’s first lgbtq+ and lesbian center, located in Bangkok, featuring a queer gift and guide shop, café, mixed gay/lesbian pub, and guesthouse. The center went on to host author readings, women’s workshops, AIDS/HIV education and fundraising, and Bangkok’s first International Lesbian and Gay Film/Video Festival: Hearts of Glow.

    On December 13, 1995 we launched the Utopia-Asia.com website, the first portal providing up-to-date pan-Asian information in a non-pornographic format. An archive of the Utopia website is available from 1996 onwards. Our website went on to garner recognition from TIME Magazine, Lonely Planet, Yahoo!, Gay Times, Advocate and BBC Nature Service.

    Utopia was a founding sponsor of the first Bangkok Gay Festival in 1999, the first Pattaya Gay Festival in 2001, and the Thailand Alternative Travel Association. We also sponsored the Phuket Gay Festival and are an active member and media partner of Bangkok Pride.
