Pride in London announces 2021 date!!! #pinkinourlives

Following the UK Government’s recently announced timetable for easing of lockdown restrictions, Pride in London – the UK’s largest Pride event – will be returning to the capital on the weekend of 11th September 2021.

Michael Salter-Church MBE and Alison Camps, Co-Chairs of Pride in London, said:

“We’re delighted to announce that Pride in London will take place on the weekend of the 11th of September. Now we have the roadmap from the Government, we’re working closely with the Mayor’s office, Westminster City Council and other key bodies in London to finalize what our plans will look like. We’ll be announcing further details of the event, including what format it will take and how to participate or volunteer, in due course. We will continue to monitor and adhere to the necessary health guidance.

“Naturally we can’t wait to bring all of our wonderful communities together again and stand with them to champion LGBT+ rights across the capital and beyond. In addition to the plans for September, we’re working on a way to appropriately mark Pride’s traditional anniversary in the summer. In the meantime, our communities have their final chance today to complete our short consultation survey and let us know what they’d like to see from Pride in London this year.“

This year’s Pride will be the first in the country since 2019, after last year’s event in London as well as all the other Pride celebrations in the country, were canceled due to Corona.

Details of what shape the festivities will take have yet to be confirmed. Typically, around 30,000 people are involved in the parade, with the weekend’s events drawing almost a million people.
