THOUSANDS of people will flock to Brighton this weekend to celebrate the city’s largest event.
Girls Aloud, S-Club, Gabrielle, Mika and Billy Porter are just a few of the big names who will take to the stage during FABULOSO, the two-day event at Preston Park.
The much-loved Brighton & Hove Pride LGBTQ+ Community Day Parade will open the weekend under this year’s theme of JOY: celebrating life, spirit, and resilience. It’ll kick off at 11am from Hove Lawns and end up at Preston Park at lunchtime.
The parade will wind through the city streets in its usual spectacular colour and style, delighting the thousands of people who take to the streets to watch the event which showcases over one hundred lack charities, community groups and small businesses, our invaluable emergency services, the NHS and representatives of other Pride organisations. Other Brighton & Hove Pride favourites including the Pride Village Party and Pride Community Day & Dog Show will also make their rainbow-coloured return.
Joining the lineup is multi-award winning actor, musician and LGBTQ+ icon, Billy Porter; dancefloor and all-out sensation, Sophie Ellis Bextor; pop family favourites S Club, the UK’s treasured singer-songwriter Gabrielle; Kevin Aviance, Björn Again, House Gospel Choir and Danny Beard.
In addition to the main stage, FABULOSO will continue to host an additional array of diverse and inclusive stages and entertainment zones across the park including the Pride Dance Tent, Beefmince Dance Tent, Cabaret Big Top, Diva Dance Tent, Polyglamorous, the Cocoa Butter Club Stage, Queertown and more.
