Tavistock Pride 2023

Tavistock Pride takes place on Saturday the 1st July 2023. Tavistocks very first pride event aims to bring together the LGBT+ community and their allies in celebration, creating a voice for those in Tavistock, West Devon and the surrounding areas. Festival Tavi Pride will take place on Saturday 1st July, predominantly in the Meadows from 1pm (exact timings to be confirmed). During the afternoon there will be a festival-style event and a picnic in the park with music and other family-friendly festivities followed by a parade and speeches ending in the town square at 5:30pm. We hope that local pubs will want to join in and help the celebrations continue into the evening.
