Info
Swansea Pride takes place on the Saturday the 17th May 2025.
Swansea Pride is a volunteer-led charity that works to promote the elimination of discrimination, be it on the grounds of sexual orientation, gender, race, religion or ability. In 2008 a group of local LGBT people organised themselves after discussing their mutual ambition to organise an outdoor Pride event in Swansea. The organisers included the people behind local social media website, Gayswansea.com. There were no professional event organisers on the initial committee, and the event was put together entirely by volunteers. Pink in the Park, the first event, took place on the Lacrosse Field, Singleton Park on 28 June 2009. Emboldened by their
success, and following the second Swansea Pride event in 2010, the events volunteers decided to constitute as a registered charity. The decision to become a charity was made to publicly demonstrate that Swansea Pride is a not-for-profit event run by volunteers for the benefit of the local LGBT community, their friends and families.
