Highland Pride 2022 Invernessshire

Info

Highland Pride takes on Saturday the 11th June 2022.

After two VERY long years we are delighted to announce plans for our summer pride event at the Northern Meeting Park in Inverness on Saturday 11 June with £10,000 funding from The National Lottery Community Fund. A proposed march (subject to approval) will leave from the city centre’s Falcon Square through the streets to the Northern Meeting Park for speeches, live music, food, bar, stalls and more.

With the help of High Life Highland, we’ve been able to secure the Northern Meeting Park, which offers a more central location and allows us to work in partnership with Eden Court next door to extend our event space for workshops and film screenings.

We’d love to see our LGBT+ community and allies across the Highlands and Islands, and Moray come together to celebrate with us because we have achieved so much, and love really does win. We also acknowledge there is progress to be made, social injustice is still a reality for many LGBT+ people - both here in the Highlands and across the world.

The theme for this year’s event is ‘Rebel Rebel’ inspired by one of Davie Bowie’s most famous songs. Bowie was a popular icon in #LGBT+ culture and led the way for many others to confidently be themselves. We hope that you feel creatively inspired to come as yourself on the day...it’s cool to be different, and if you are, don’t let it limit who you show yourself to be on the outside!
