Pride in Preston Park...
review
Early estimates are that over 125,000 people turned up to Preston Park to enjoy the sunshine, to soak up the atmosphere and to show support for the LGBT community in Brighton and Hove.
Still a free event (and forever may it remain so!) the event encourages everyone to enjoy the atmosphere. What an amazing day it was.

Roaming the park

The park was packed. Packed with party people enjoying the unique atmosphere, drinking, eating, buying trinkets and... we... queueing for the loos. Not wanting to wait in line, I headed off to the edge of the park, only to discover that there was even a queue for the bushes...

Ah the blessings tent! What better way to celebrate your big Gay Day Out than being eternally bound to your one true love? An intimate ceremony? Well, as intimate as it gets with a ceremony that is set against a backdrop of a very full Preston Park in the heat!

Lo-la, Lo-la, Lo-la... The afternoon in the Revenge Cabaret Tent was astoundingly good. It's difficult to describe just how good it was without gushing.
