About the event
Following the Coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak of 2019/20, many local Pride festivals and events up and down the UK have been cancelled.
With people forced into self-isolation, Virtual Pride offers a FREE day-long online festival celebrating Britain’s diverse LGBT+ community.
Virtual Pride will feature 10 HOURS of performances live-streamed from the artist’s home, with household names, alongside national Pride favourites. The day will also include speeches and messages from leading LGBT+ campaigners and an information directory on our website. We will be fundraising for LGBT+ charities.
Every Pride should feature a parade and ours will too… At 5pm (12:00pm EST) everyone in the UK - and beyond - will be encouraged to post a video on Social Media of themselves walking around their home. They must include a feel-good #VirtualPride message and together, all at once, we will march in unity.
With a lack of LGBT+ parades and celebrations on our streets this summer, Virtual Pride offers a platform for the LGBT+ community to come together this May.
