The Brighton Pride Community Parade is set to take place on Saturday, August 5 with it starting at 11 am at Hove Lawns before finishing up at Preston Park for the Fabuloso in The Park event.
On the website, it says: "The Pride LGBTQ+ Community Parade is one of the undisputed highlights of the Brighton & Hove Pride weekend and is a glorious showcase of the city’s charities, community groups and small businesses as well as our invaluable emergency services, the NHS and statutory partners."
While organisers have opted to retain last year’s theme of Love, Protest and Unity for the parade, they have also added the “challenge”, encouraging people to “dare to be different”.
Hands up if you don't want the weekend to end!
