Stoke on Trent Pride takes place on Saturday the 21st June 2025. Stoke-on-Trent Pride has quickly grown into one of Stoke-on-Trents biggest and most vibrant annual community festivals, welcoming not only the Lesbian, Gay, bisexual and transgender community but everyone who values diversity in our City and wishes to celebrate equality. This popular one day event turns the Victorian built Hanley Park into a magical array of colours supported by street performers, dancers, singers and local artists. The purpose of Stoke-on-Trent Pride is to create a safe environment for people who are LGBT+ community, their friends, family can come together and celebrate diversity and culture in the city and promote acceptance and awareness of issues affecting people who are LGBT+ Pride is an inclusive event open to everyone; the pride committee will make every effort to recognise the needs of older people, younger people, people with a disability and those who are socially isolated.
