Pride in Trafford - something for all ages

SALE Waterside and Gorse Hill Studios are gearing up for a celebration of LGBTQ arts and culture with an exciting, challenging and dynamic programme of performances and exhibitions.

The events take place at the WAC and Gorse Hill from May 17-21.

Darren Adams, manager at the WAC, said everyone connected to the event said this year’s programme offers people a reminder of what unites rather than divides us during what he described as “five days of fun.”

Darren said:

“We are really thrilled with this year’s line-up for Pride in Trafford. There is a real sense of ‘coming together’ weaved throughout the programme – not just because all the events are live in person, but in terms of the themes, the artists and the collaborators involved.

“Through their work, all our performers celebrate inclusivity, love, diversity and togetherness and one thing that really stands out and encapsulates this year’s programme is that our differences can unite us and that it is something to embrace and celebrate. We cannot wait to see the community back celebrating Pride in Trafford for five days of queer joy, fun and pride.”

The fun begins with the unveiling of the now famous rainbow flag outside Sale Town Hall on May 17 and anyone interested in finding out more should visit prideintrafford.org.
