THE LATEST HEADLINES

Welcome to leeds pride, the biggest celebration of lgtq+ life in yorkshire!

Leeds Pride is one of the biggest festivals in Leeds City Centre! It has undoubtedly become a huge contributor to the local economy with over 70,000 choosing to visit last year, and attendance numbers are growing every year!

 

Each year, the colourful parade kicks off from outside the Town Hall, winding its way through the city streets and culminating on Lower Briggate by The Calls, where the festivities begin. The parade and festival are not only a celebration of pride and solidarity, but also a significant economic driver, contributing an estimated £3.8 million to the city centre. Last year saw the biggest ever parade with over 167 organisations in attendance throughout the day.

 

Leeds Pride now attracts people from all over the UK and overseas. We can’t wait for you to join us for Leeds Pride 2026, as we celebrate 20 years of Pride in Leeds!
