York Pride
2025-06-07 11:00 - 18:30 (Europe/London) | Feasegate, Feasegate, York, YO1 8SH
We are really looking forward to York Pride on Saturday 7th June – one of the most exciting and meaningful events in the city’s calendar!
This year, we’ll be marching with the big Trans flag, showing our pride and solidarity with the trans community. If you’d like to join us in the parade, please meet us between 11:00am and 11:15am on Feasegate, right next to the Viewpoint store. Look out for friendly faces in hi-vis jackets who will be there to guide you.
After the parade, come visit us at our stall on the Knavesmire, where you can learn more about what we do, connect with others, and pick up some great resources. We’ll also have a members’ area, offering a relaxed space to chat, unwind, and enjoy the day together.
It’s going to be a fantastic celebration of LGBTQ+ pride, visibility, and community – and we can’t wait to see you there
