What's Happening Liverpool

Some of the latest opportunities from Liverpool's wellbeing and creative communities



Pride in Liverpool returns on Saturday 29 July 2023.

For the first time, Pride in Liverpool will showcase a ‘city full of pride’ with elements of the annual festival being spread across the whole city centre allowing pride-goers to experience the event in a totally unique way.

The new approach to Pride in Liverpool means that everyone attending can make their day unique and reflect what pride means to them; whether taking to the streets in protest, a party atmosphere, or a more laid back experience, they can find or create an itinerary which suits them best.

In 2023, Liverpool and Ukraine remain united by love! This year Liverpool will showcase Kyiv and Ukraine's LGBT+ spirit as the annual March with Pride is held jointly with Kyiv Pride.
