Sherborne Pride 2025

Sherborne Pride takes place on Sunday the 6th July 2025. Pride is not just for the LGBTQIA+ community its for everyone and in many ways, its the presence of allies that is most important. Its a chance for allies to stand shoulder to shoulder with their loved ones and say, You are seen, you are heard, and you are loved. Its a celebration of love in its purest form. A reminder that, no matter who we are or whom we love, we all deserve to live our lives authentically and without fear. Each year, every Pride has a different campaign theme and for our inaugural event its: Love Lives Here. So, as the rainbow flags unfurl and the streets of Sherborne come alive with colour and music, lets join together in celebration of love and acceptance for today, for tomorrow, and for all the days to come. This year will be Sherborne's 2nd pride. Theme to follow Parade The heart of any Pride event is its Parade. United, shoulder to shoulder, representing, walking proud, LGBTQIA+ members, allies, friends, family, colleagues. Out, proud, in numbers, waving the flag, making some noise, showing our beautiful colours, being seen, being heard, feeling free. More to follow Festival to follow After party to follow
