Preston Pride returns next weekend.

The city’s annual celebration of LGBTQ+ life takes place on Saturday 27th September from 10 till 4 on The Flag Market.

Expect live music, drag acts, community performers, stalls and family activities — all free to attend.

A highlight is the expanded parade route, winding through the city centre before finishing at the Flag Market.

Organisers say the event, which drew over 3,000 people last year, continues to grow as a symbol of inclusivity, diversity and community spirit.
