Gay Pride 2008

The HIV Support Centre will be taking part in this year's annual Gay Pride Event in August 2008.

 

The first Saturday of August is Pride Day in Belfast, the highlight of the gay calendar in Northern Ireland and the climax to the week long programme of festivities.

 

Last year The HIV Support Centre with six and a half thousand LGBT people, friends, families and supporters sang, danced and cheered their way through Belfast City Centre accompanied by a range of floats and a plethora of flags, banners and placards.

 

The event is one of Northern Ireland's largest carnivals, bringing a spectacle of colour, music and energy onto the streets of Belfast. The parade really is a great opportunity for all LGBT people, friends, families and supporters to express our diversity, freedom and unity. 

 

If anyone would like to join us at the event, please email stuart@thehivsupportcentre.org.uk for more information.  At this stage it's likely the route will remain much the same as last year, but the Pride Committee will publish any changes well in advance. As always the parade will start and finish at Party in the Square.

 

We look forward to seeing you there.
