Cheltenham Pride Parade

Take Part

DATE: 13 May 2023

TIME: 11:15am

WHERE: Outside John Lewis, 123 High St, Cheltenham GL50 1DQ

At Cheltenham Pride, we believe that Pride is a protest! It's a powerful way to use our political voice to amplify, maintain and further LGBTQ+ human rights in Cheltenham and beyond. We stand up for equality, diversity and inclusion, to celebrate our community and to show that hatred and prejudice have no place in our town or anywhere else.

We welcome community groups, charities, public sector organisations and businesses who actively support LGBT+ human rights to join us in our mission. We believe that everyone should have the right to celebrate, champion and progress LGBTQ+ human rights without fear of discrimination or persecution.

We don't charge or restrict members of the public to join the parade. Everyone is welcome to join us and show their support. However, we do ask larger groups coming together, even if you are a social group, to register for free. This helps us coordinate with you and manage numbers to ensure the safety of all involved.

We also invite businesses, companies, and large organisations/charities who actively empower communities, LGBT+ people and promote human rights to take part in the parade. It's a chance to make a visible statement of your commitment to the cause. You will need to register your organisation to take part. Please note that we will not accept applications from organisations that are involved in defence, arms/weapons manufacturing, or animal testing.

Join us at Cheltenham Pride and let's show the world that love always wins!
