A dazzling display of inclusivity, and just about as much fun as you can have with your clothes on, the Brighton & Hove Pride Festival in Preston Park is the beating heart of every year’s event.

Described by The Guardian as “the country’s most popular LGBT+ event,” tens of thousands of partygoers have come out in years gone by to see a host of performances from international superstars Britney Spears, Nile Rodgers & Chic, Jess Glynne, Ella Eyre, Raye, Gabrielle, Sister Sledge, Carly Rae Jepsen, Pet Shop Boys, Years & Years, Fatboy Slim, Katy B, Ruby Rose, The Human League, Fleur East, Alesha Dixon, Ella Henderson, Boy George, Alison Moyet, Paloma Faith, Blue, Tulisa, Collabro, and Ms Dynamite amongst others.

As revellers flood into Brighton from around the world to party alongside city residents, Preston Park is transformed into a paradisiacal playground of performance and dance tents, a community village, and a bevy of the finest food and drink options to keep you fuelled throughout the day.

The Brighton & Hove Pride team always put a good time first and foremost in mind for the Pride festival, and we’d like to extend a special thank you to everyone who has bought a ticket. If you see an official Pride representative shaking a bucket throughout the day, please don’t be shy – and feel free to add further to the fundraising efforts that lie at the heart of what Pride is all about.
