Welcome to the Gays Randonneurs Nantais!
We are an LGBTQIA+ & Straight Friendly association, created in 1985 by Noël D. to fight against AIDS, against discrimination based on morals, and to defend the rights of homosexuals.
We are also one of the founding members of the Nantes LGBTQIA+ center: NOSIG
Our mission is also to promote tolerance, to create a space where everyone can indulge in hiking and other activities in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
With 200 members in 2024, our family is constantly growing, welcoming people from all backgrounds and all identities.
We believe in equality and conviviality, and our association is a place where everyone can express themselves fully and freely.
Every month, we organize a "RandoJeux" board game evening on the first Friday, and on the third Friday a convivial evening around an aperitif followed by a restaurant, to bring together our members and newcomers in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
In addition to this, our calendar is full of exciting events such as cinema, theater, shows, exhibitions, science, heritage, and much more!
We also organize weekends and stays around hiking or culture.
Among the highlights of our year, there is the burlesque show/revue of Plus Belles Girls: 2 hours of laughter and good humor, presented in November in aid of associations fighting against AIDS.
We are proud to be a dynamic community that values diversity and personal development.
Whether you are passionate about hiking or simply looking for new friends, the GRN is the ideal place to share unforgettable moments.
Join us to celebrate life, diversity and friendship in an atmosphere where everyone feels welcome.
We look forward to welcoming you among us!
The GRN Board of Directors
