Thousands are expected to line the streets of York and visit the Knavesmire for the largest LGBTQ+ celebration in North Yorkshire early next month.

Thousands are expected to line the streets of York and visit the Knavesmire for the largest LGBTQ+ celebration in North Yorkshire early next month. On Saturday the 1st of June, is York Pride, the city's largest one-day free festival delivered by a team of dedicated volunteers. Starting at 12 noon is the popular 2.4 mile parade, which heads towards the race course, and will pass a choir stationed on Bishopthorpe Road and a warm welcome at Middletons Hotel, along the way. This year from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm there will be a ‘Quiet Hour’ at the Knavesmire where those wanting a calmer, quieter experience will be welcomed.
