Blackpool Pride Festival Parade Permission has now been granted by Blackpool Council for the walking parade. Unfortunately due to the ongoing redevelopment of Blackpool we are not able to have a parade to include vehicles (except mobility scooters etc) and be on the promenade, but that does not mean Blackpool will not be aware we are in town! 2013 celebrates the first annual Blackpool Pride Festival Parade in our resort. This is your opportunity to wave your flag, make lots of noise and help us celebrate the long and rich history of LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans) Community in Blackpool. Wherever you are from and whatever your background or culture is….Blackpool Pride Festival welcomes you to join in. There are so many ways to take part and every entrant is vitally important to us from individual entries to larger ones. Don’t be put off thinking it might be too much work and expense. Colourful costumes, banners, Work /Trade Union/Community project T shirts/flags – we look forward to seeing them all and they are all lots of fun to create, the brighter the better! Of course, the bigger entries are great too and we are hoping many of the resorts top businesses will enter into the spirit this year. You are free to be as tastefully outrageous, loud and colourful as possible with rainbow flags a must.

pedestrian areas of Blackpool Town Centre and will disperse at around 12.00 at the Winter Gardens complex where the fun begins!
