Doncaster Pride on Saturday!

Hello there,

Doncaster Pride is back on Saturday (10 August) at Town Field and not only that, we’re this year’s UK Pride host city which is a tremendous boost for Doncaster

Doncaster Pride, a registered charity, established in 2007 and run by a small team of volunteers, has delivered an annual event in the city ever since. Pride events are important as they raise the profile of the LGBTQ+ community, celebrate the culture and heritage and campaign for much needed support to bring about inclusion and end discrimination.

Event-goers can enjoy a vibrant day of music, acts, entertainment, stalls, activities and electric atmosphere. This year, there will be three stages of entertainment and for the first time, Doncaster Youth Pride will give the under-18s their own area with entertainment and activities designed by themselves.

A variety of council services will be there on the day in the Choose Kindness marquee or across Town Field. These include Visit Doncaster, Communities teams, Domestic Abuse Team, Complex Lives, Proud to Care, Well Doncaster and members of Doncaster’s Public Health team who will be attending to talk about being compassionate to yourself and your body as well as a number of other health teams. Our Foster for Doncaster team and our adoption team, One Adoption South Yorkshire will be hosting an information stand too.  

Also come along and take the Choose Kindness pledge. This is our city-wide movement to champion the power of kindness and the rich diversity of our local people and communities.

Full details of the programme and timings can be found at:
