Bourne Free Pride Festival 2020

Info

Covid-19
Unfortunately, Bournemouth Pride is being postponed due to circumstances of Covid-19.

Bourne Free is Bournemouth's LGBT Pride Festival and is the biggest Pride in Dorset and the date of next year’s Bournefree Pride Weekend, Friday 3rd of the July and Saturday the 4th of July 2020. It is an annual celebration of all diversities that live in Bournemouth and the constant strive towards universal equality for all through entertainment and awareness.

This theme mixes the fun of Schools Out with a serious message about paying tribute to a landmark regulation for teaching relationships and sex education ( RSE ) that comes into force in English schools in September 2020.

The Chair of Bourne Free Ben Horgan said “Next year will be a landmark moment – a whole new generation will attend schools that not only accept LGBT people and same-sex relationships, but also celebrate and offer support on the issues that young LGBT people face.

The guidance means that primary schools will teach about different families, which of course includes LGBT families. Contrary to what’s been said by some online and in the media, this is just about showing kids that families can have two mums or two dads. Or to put another way: different families, same love”

So whether you want to be Brittany Spears, a St Trinian, a tribute to Alice Cooper, or a pupil at Hogwarts, get creative for July next year!
