Pride London - Saturday 04 July 2009
Every year huge crowds pack the streets of London to watch the spectacular parade of celebrities, floats, and performers celebrating the UK’s largest gay and lesbian festival.
This year the theme of London’s Gay Pride is COME OUT and PLAY. More on the precise meaning of the theme in the coming weeks, so keep checking back for regular updates!
As usual Pride London will set off from Baker Street at 1pm and proceed down Oxford Street and Regent Street taking in some of the major sites of London and swinging round through Piccadilly to Trafalgar Square.
Assembly will be in Baker Street from 11:00, and the parade departs Baker Street (at the side of Selfridges) at 13:00.
In Trafalgar Square you’ll find an eclectic mix of speakers, stalls and a great line up of main stage performers from 3 p.m. Alternatively, head into Soho where you’ll find the streets closed to traffic and a street party in full swing.
With stages and bars dotted around you’ll find plenty of entertainment or a place to chill with mates or space to make new friends. There truly is a place for everyone at this fabulous free event.
