Taunton Pride 2024 England

Info

Taunton Pride takes place on Saturday the 21st September 202.

This will be its most inclusive, colourful and creative festival yet. We believe that by creating an exciting event attracting people from all walks of life we will be able to promote not only Arts but culture, diversity and inclusivity, creating a vibrant community of respect and connection. For young LGBTQIA+ people in Taunton, it’s crucial that they feel represented. Our event is a collaborative progression from previous events celebrating arts, culture, diversity and inclusion. With an increased capacity of 10,000 people this year, Taunton Pride aims to be one of the busiest, yet safest events anywhere in the South West.

Parade
Kick starting this year's celebrations, we take Pride back to its roots and invite you to come and join the rest of the community to take part in our official pride march which will start to gather from 11:00. Leaving from Goodlands Gardens at 11.30 the March will then progress up North Street, past the historical Market House in the centre of Taunton Town Centre, before bearing right and heading up toward the main entrance of Vivary Park and into this year's Main event. There’s no need to register, just check out the details below and we will see you on the day. Please note, vehicles, and dogs, are not permitted.

Festival
At noon on the 21st of September 2024 the gates of Vivary Park will open for this year’s main event which stays open until 20:00 in the evening. You can expect a welcoming, diverse and inclusive event that allows you to celebrate your pride, your way. The event is going to be ticketed this year, but unlike last year, the tickets are free! We need your support, however, and you have the option of making a donation. If you can, we would greatly appreciate it!
