Which emoji sequence depicts a rainbow flag?

The emoji sequence that depicts a rainbow flag is 🏳️‍🌈.

The rainbow-flag emoji combines WHITE FLAG, a variation selector, a zero-width joiner, and RAINBOW. The joiner asks compatible systems to display the component characters as one combined pictograph rather than as separate symbols. Its Unicode sequence is commonly written as U+1F3F3 U+FE0F U+200D U+1F308.

The design refers to the rainbow flag associated with LGBTQ pride and equality. The modern pride flag grew from designs created for LGBTQ community events, with Gilbert Baker’s 1978 rainbow flag among its best-known historical predecessors.

Emoji support depends on software and fonts. Older systems may show the white flag and rainbow separately, while newer systems render the joined sequence as one flag. The sequence is distinct from the transgender flag emoji, which uses a different combination of components.
