Manchester Pride Festival 2024

Manchester Pride Festival is one of the biggest events in Manchester’s cultural calendar, drawing tens of thousands of people to the city for the annual parade, party and protest.

From the Manchester Pride Parade to the Gay Village Party (with a huge line-up of stars), plus the poignant candlelit vigil, it’s a popular event for Manchester and one of the biggest LGBTQ+ events in the country.

Over decades, the festival has grown into one of the longest-running Pride celebrations in the country – expanding massively over the years, whilst doing its bit to raise awareness, acceptance, and huge sums of money for important charitable causes.
