Earlier this year, the trustees of Warwickshire Pride decided to not permit any political parties to participate in this year’s Warwickshire Pride festival.

People have been sent bank details from a non-WP email address, told to pay into an account if they want to have a stall at an event in July, and told it’s Warwickshire Pride. This is not us.

Headlining Warwickshire Pride 2025 are BIG BROVAZ and BOOTY LUV. Both acts will be performing live at Warwickshire Pride. You can expect a full show with all the hits.

The theme this year is activism and social change. We definitely need that right now! Pride started as a protest and sadly still needs to be a protest.

We are delighted and grateful to The King’s Fund for selecting Warwickshire Pride as one of 15 charities in the UK to receive a donation of £10,000 and a place on a training and development programme.

Rugby Methodist Church Centre are holding Queer Carols on Monday 23rd December at 7:00pm. A safe and inclusive place to celebrate Christmas in a relaxed environment.

Stall applications and performer bookings for Warwickshire Pride 2025 will open in January. We already have a lengthy waiting list for stalls and expect the pitches to sell very quickly. Please email us if you want to be notified when bookings open.

Our future plans for events in Stratford in Nuneaton. If you have ideas of what you’d like to see or help organise, get in touch.

Warwickshire Police is appealing for witnesses or anyone with information regarding the Warwickshire Pride flags being set fire to and stolen, and gazebos being destroyed, the night before this year’s Pride festival in August.

Feedback from people who attended helps us to understand what worked well, what we can improve, and it means we can demonstrate the positive impact to funders and sponsors.
