The day begins with an 11.15am Pride March through Weston-super-Mare to Grove Park where the main event takes place.
In the park you’ll find a lively programme of live music, performances and speakers on the bandstand, alongside community stalls, local charities, food vendors and activities for all ages. There will also be dedicated spaces designed to make the event welcoming for everyone, including a family area, a quiet/sensory space and welfare support.
Weston Pride is about visibility, inclusion and community. It’s a chance for LGBTQ+ people, friends, families and allies to come together and show that Weston-super-Mare is a place where everyone belongs.
