Trustees and volunteers working hard behind the scenes are proud to announce that Exeter Pride will be returning in 2022 on Saturday, May 14.
Exeter Pride is one of the South West’s biggest celebrations of LGBTQ+ communities, and one of the biggest free Pride events in the country.
It is a key annual event in Exeter’s calendar and exciting plans are being made for the 2022 event – the first held in Northernhay Gardens since 2019, after the pandemic saw the 2020 event cancelled at short notice and moved online.
The day will feature a colourful rainbow flag march through Exeter, including a fire engine, an ambulance, dancers, music and much more.
Representatives from community groups and organisations as well as individuals will also be taking part to show their support. There will be information and advice from local, national and international organisations, as well as demonstrations and fun activities.
Tamsin Scott, Chair of Exeter Pride’s Committee, said: “We are so excited to finally be able to welcome back our friends and allies in the LGBTQ+ community.
“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.”
More details will be announced in the coming months; but one thing is clear – Exeter Pride is back!
