About Pride in London
Pride in London provides a platform for every part of London’s LGBTQ+ communities (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans*, queer, questioning, intersex, non-binary, asexual, polysexual, genderqueer and gender variant people) to raise awareness of LGBTQ+ issues and campaign for the freedoms that will allow them to live their lives on a genuinely equal footing.
The Pride in London 2025 Parade Day will take place on Saturday, 5th July and celebrates all aspects of the LGBTQ+ community.
Pride in London is organised by London LGBT Community Pride, a Community Interest Company led mainly by volunteers.
