Pride events and festivals around the world are aiming to create a safe, inclusive and empowering environment where LGBTQ+ individuals can thrive and be celebrated for their unique identities. Pride is a celebration of people and communities coming together to show how far LGBTQ+ rights have come, and how in some places there’s still work to be done.

Basingstoke Pride will be taking place on the 17th August 2024 from 12pm-4pm at the Festival Place Amphitheatre.

All the information about the Parade can be found here. Please note that if you have a ticket that you will need to be at Willow’s Cafe at 11:30 with your ticket ready to be scanned.
