This year’s fundraiser is on Thursday, May 19 and will once again bring together sponsors, business leaders, individual supporters, community champions and celebrities to raise money for The Manchester Pride Community Fund.

The event will be hosted at The Bays, Victoria Warehouse Hotel in Manchester with entertainment provided by Liverpool songstress Rebecca Ferguson and acoustic, folk singer and former X-Factor contestant Lucy Spraggan. Local performer Dean Mac has also added to the star-studded line-up.

In addition to the great entertainment lineup, guests will be invited to make their way down the red carpet to a sparkling drinks reception in the illustrious Bays Brick Bar.

The Manchester Pride Spring Benefit raises money for the Manchester Pride Community Fund which provides crucial support for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and HIV charities and organisations in Greater Manchester.

Mark Fletcher, Chief Executive at Manchester Pride, said: “We’re really pleased to be bringing back the Spring Benefit for a second year, following its huge success in 2015. Last year’s event made a significant contribution to our record annual fundraising total, earning its place as a firm must attend evening on the LGBT and supporters calendar. With an amazing new venue, this year attendees can expect another first class evening with stunning performances and a few surprises on the night, and we will of course be encouraging everybody to help us beat the total raised for LGBT causes at last year’s event.”

There are a limited number of tickets available for the event and individual tickets can be purchased for £85, which includes a drinks reception, a four-course dinner and entertainment.

There are two table packages available for group bookings:

♦ A premium table of ten costing £800

♦ A Platinum Package costing £1500 which includes a VIP drinks reception, chauffeur service to the event, and a professional red carpet photo opportunity.
