Bristol Pride has just been named in the Top 50 Pride Destinations in the world
Bristol was one of only 4 UK cities to make the Top 50, joining Brighton, Manchester and Birmingham, this is a fantastic accolade and one that the team are incredibly proud of.
The survey by HomeToGo looked at hundreds of Pride events around the world, it ranked the strong year-on-year growth of Pride festivities as well as other factors including how LGBT+ friendly the city is.
Recognised for its incredible growth in recent years, this year’s Bristol Pride Festival has expanded to two weeks jam packed with events to celebrate and showcase the LGBT+ Community.
Pride is creating opportunities for visibility, social cohesion and tackling issues that challenge and affect the local community.
Pride Day 2018 takes place on Saturday 14 July down on the harbourside.
Pride is now one of Bristol’s biggest events drawing record numbers to the city every year and in 2017 was named in Visit Bristol’s top3 reasons why people attended the city over the summer.
