Following a successful launch night in the Gay Village on Friday evening, yesterday all eyes were on the parade.
This year's theme was 'Queerly Beloved, which was chosen to celebrate love in the 10th anniversary year of marriage equality in the UK after the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act was passed on July 17, 2013.
Crowds donning raincoats and multi-coloured umbrellas braved the showers to show their support for the LGBTQ+ community as the Manchester Pride parade officially got underway. As expected, there was plenty of sparkles, rainbows and fabulous outfits - and by last count a staggering 227 different floats and groups involved.
It's become one of the main highlights of the four-day celebration, and this year's event didn't disappoint. Starting at the top of Liverpool Road and working its way down Deansgate, crowds were treated to bold, beautiful, and showstopping display as floats showed the very best of Pride.
