SUMMARY:Asexual (Ace) Awareness Week - 2026
DESCRIPTION:Asexual Awareness Week\, now known as Ace Week\, is celebrated the last full week of October. Part celebration of the progress we’ve made as a community\, and part campaign for greater understanding and acceptance of asexual-spectrum identities\, Ace Week is a time to focus on all things ace*. \nThe ace community has made significant headway over the years. Asexual representation in mainstream media continues to improve\, major LGBTQ+ organizations now acknowledge and include us\, and ace community groups have sprouted up and flourished in cities around the world. Ace Week gives us an opportunity to recognize these achievements and the efforts that made them possible. \nThough we have much to celebrate\, the fight for visibility and acceptance is still ongoing. Ace identities are often overlooked or misunderstood\, and many aces still grow up not realizing that asexuality is an option. Since the issues aces face are directly influenced by their other marginalized identities\, many in our community—especially aces of color\, disabled aces\, and aces with other LGBTQ+ identities—can face significant barriers to equality and acceptance. \nIn light of this\, aces all over the world participate in Ace Week by creating educational resources\, sharing information on social media\, and organizing community events. These global initiatives serve to raise awareness\, spread information\, and spark discussion about ace identities. More and more people discover ace communities each year\, and with them\, find acceptance\, comfort\, and joy.
