First parade since 2019
Exeter Pride will be returning to the city for the first time in three years, following an enforced break because of the pandemic.
Organisers say it is one of the south west's biggest celebrations of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and questioning plus (LGBTQ+) communities, and one of the biggest free Pride events in the country.
It will take place on Saturday 14 May in Northernhay Gardens.
The day will include a colourful rainbow flag march through Exeter, including a fire engine, an ambulance, dancers and music.
Tamsin Scott, chair of Exeter Pride’s committee, said: “The last few years have made it harder than ever for us to support each other, especially in the face of harmful narratives and policies that threaten the most vulnerable in our community.
“We also face fresh challenges this year as we work with our local business partners and sponsors in a changed economic landscape.
“It is vital now that we can come together, be visible, be proud, and stand in solidarity with those who are currently unable to do so.”
