Birmingham Pride is gearing up for one of its biggest ever line-ups this year.
As well as putting on a brilliant display of love and inclusivity with their annual Pride parade, the organisers of Birmingham Pride aways manage to secure some of the world’s hottest talent, and this year looks better than ever.
Taking place over the May bank holiday weekend (26-27 May) in Birmingham’s Gay Village, there will be a wide range of LGBTQ talent as well as queer allies taking to the stage, so there’s no excuse not to come out and party.
On Saturday, revellers at the HSBC UK Main Stage will be entertained by the likes of Stefflon Don, MNEK, Louisa, Kim Petras, Jax Jones, Kelli-Leigh, Louise Redknapp, and Gossip lead singer Beth Ditto.
For those looking to carry the party on until Sunday, there’ll be performances from Scissor Sisters frontman Jake Shears, drag superstar Courtney Act, 80s icon Howard Jones, and Brit Award-winning group Rudimental.
