Pride events have been taking place in Manchester for 20 years and the current Manchester Pride organisation is in its seventh year of organising the festival.

The main goal of Manchester Pride is to raise money for a variety of LGBT organisations and groups within Greater Manchester and we thank you for your ongoing support.

This year the parade starts at 13:00 on Saturday 27 August and will celebrate all things Blighty with a 'Best of British' theme. As usual there will be a week of events in the run up to the main weekend. See website for full details of the week's events and how to participate.

Traditionally one of the best UK Pride festivals

Since announcing the ticket prices last month Pride has been working hard to ensure its supporters have an event to remember and at a price which is fair and affordable, and we are very pleased to be able to announce that supporters will not have to pay a booking fee when buying their tickets for Pride. As ever the Summer Festival Week will be running in the week preceding Pride weekend. With a wide range of interesting and exciting events to keep everyone entertained throughout the week already planned & more to follow. The main event takes place on Saturday 13th August.
