Pride Cymru 2025: All You Need to Know
Pride Cymru, a vibrant celebration of love, diversity, and inclusivity, is set to return to Cardiff in 2025. This anticipated event promises to bring a splash of colour and joy to the streets of the Welsh capital. The event has consistently drawn thousands of attendees in recent years, and with the success of last year’s festivities, expectations are high for an even bigger and better Pride in 2025. Scheduled for Saturday, June 21, and Sunday, June 22, the festivities will once again be held at Coopers Field, Bute Park, the birthplace of the event.
The highlight of Pride Cymru is the lively parade that winds its way through the city, showcasing the LGBTQ+ community’s vibrant spirit. This year, the parade will kick off on Saturday, June 21, featuring a mix of LGBTQ+ groups, businesses, and individuals coming together to show support and celebrate the progress made by the LGBTQIA+ communities. The parade serves as a colourful and symbolic display of unity and inclusivity for all to enjoy.
One of the main attractions of the event is the lineup of performances, with the talented Ella Henderson headlining the Principality Building Society main stage on Saturday, June 21. Alongside Henderson, a diverse range of artists will take the stage, including Kimberley Wyatt, Shola Ama, Booty Luv, and other exciting acts that promise to keep the energy high and the crowds entertained throughout the weekend.
In addition to the performances, Pride Cymru offers a plethora of activities and entertainment for attendees to enjoy. Previous years have featured a community market showcasing LGBTQ+ small businesses, as well as family and youth areas providing fun-filled experiences for all ages. While specific details for this year’s activities are yet to be announced, attendees can expect a weekend filled with excitement and memorable moments.
