THE Manchester Pride parade brought a sea of jubilation, good vibes and plenty of glitter to the city centre yesterday afternoon.
Held each year, the parade takes place from Deansgate towards the Gay Village and sees thousands of people line the streets to take in the positive vibes of the event and to show unity with the LGBTQ+ community.
As usual, this year’s parade saw drag artists, community groups and allies take part, with the likes of Danny Beard, Tia Kofi, Su Pollard, DJ Paulette, Russell T Davies and Charity Shop Sue amongst some of the famous faces taking part.
The parade took on a Buzzin to be Queer theme, taking inspiration from the spirit of the worker bee, adopted by Mancunians. Fittingly, it meant that many of those marching took the theming quite literally, and fabulously, with plenty of bee outfits on show.
