Leicester Pride 2026

Leicester Pride is a single-day Pride that moves the whole city centre out to a park. The parade forms up outside the Curve theatre in the cultural quarter, goes through the Lanes, Jubilee Square and the High Street, and finishes at Abbey Park.

Abbey Park is where the festival proper happens once the parade arrives. The park takes the stages, the market stalls and the community area, and there is room in it for a crowd that a city-centre square could not hold.

It is run by a registered charity rather than a council or a promoter, and stallholder and parade registration both go through its own site.
