Picnic Celebrates Pride Month With Focus on Teen LGBTQ+ Circles
The app provides safe communities for LGBTQ+ youth to engage in Pride Month celebrations
San Francisco — June 1, 2023 — Picnic, the social media app where teens can express themselves and make meaningful connections through online communities, is proud to shine a spotlight on its growing LGBTQ+ community featuring Gacha Girl creations with more than 200,000 users, 8.6 million views, and more than 20,000 posts.
“Picnic is inclusive and safe to chat. They welcome everyone and have been exceptionally supportive to the LGBTQ+ community,” said Lena “Skylaey’’ Sukar, an LGBTQ+ Picnic influencer. “I can be myself on Picnic and that’s what pride month is all about.”
The app is one of the internet’s fastest growing social networks with more than 3 million downloads, 100,000 posts a month, and more than 70,000 unique interest based communities. Picnic has attracted a largely teen girl audience which sees the app as their own personal corner of social media.
Picnic will be supporting its more than 500 LGBTQ+ communities by encouraging users to participate in Pride Month, share stories, photos, videos, Gacha Girls, Roblox Creations, and other content on the app. Pride content will be featured in upcoming newsletters, app notification trends, and platform features.
“Celebrating Pride is important because being supportive of the LGBT community helps expand awareness of a marginalized group. In today’s world, everyone counts, and everyone’s important no matter who they love,” said Jerome Cleary, a Picnic Team Member. “Pride Month is another example of how our app lets a new generation of social users find a place to be themselves.”
The app recently announced plans to support its content creators and community builders with a revenue share program. In early May, Picnic released a host of AI tools which can be used in-app for free.
