Pride in London 2023

London Pride takes place on Saturday, the 1st July 2023. Pride in London calls for Visibility, Unity and Equality. Pride in London announces the 51st anniversary pride parade with landmark participation and a return to its historic route. London Pride, the UKs biggest, most diverse Pride. A home for every part of Londons LGBT+ community. Parade London Pride is taking place on Saturday, 1 July. The London Pride parade will start at noon from Hyde Park Corner, while the grandstand in Haymarket will be open from 11am. The parade will trace the route of the historic 1972 march, passing important sites from the UKs LGBT+ movement. The parade kicks off at Hyde Park Corner, where the first post-march picnic took place in 1972, and where mining communities showed solidarity with the LGBT+ community in 1985. From Hyde Park Corner, the parade continues down Piccadilly, through Piccadilly Circus. Turning south on Haymarket, the parade goes through Trafalgar Square (the terminus for the 1972 March), before culminating at Whitehall Place.
