World Outgames 2009 opened on Saturday with a symbolic bang in Copenhagen Town Square – the site of the first legally recognised homosexual vows in history.

Participants from 97 countries paraded down a 50-metre catwalk extending from the entrance of City Hall, stepping in time to the sounds of Danish Music Award winner DJ BUDA and Tom.
