Leeds Pride 2025 is gearing up to be the most exciting celebration in the event’s history.
Pride organisers have revealed the full lineup for this year’s festival, and boy oh boy is it a good one.
Taking place on Sunday 20 July, the day is set to be packed with fabulous music, food, cabaret and more jam-packed into a celebration of inclusion.
On Lower Briggate, chart toppers, Liberty X, and dance music group, Booty Luv, will
headline the main stage. They will be joined by Kelly Llorena, and Angie Brown – former lead vocalist of 90s dance group Bizarre Inc. – along with amazing tribute performers including Smalltown Boy, The Voice of Whitney and Sweet Like Sabrina.
Also bringing plenty of sass to the stage are Queenz, with their fabulous ‘Drag me to the Disco show, with Pride legends Soraya Vivian and Matt Jameson returning as the official hosts of the main stage.
This year also sees the introduction of a brand-new cabaret stage at the heart of the Lower Briggate site, where RuPaul’s Drag Race royalty Danny Beard and standout local Drag talent will bring lots of sparkle to the party.
Over on the community stage in Millennium Square, pop vocalist Davey Stuart will be performing along with Gay Abandon, West Yorkshire’s LGBTQ+ choir.
The festivities begin at 10:30am in Millennium Square and continue from 12pm on Lower Briggate, featuring an expanded family area, even more food vendors, and the most market stalls Leeds Pride has ever hosted.
The parade, which is sponsored by Leeds Building Society, will start on The Headrow just after midday before making its way around the city.
A spokesperson for Leeds Pride said: “We’re incredibly excited to unveil the full line-up for Leeds Pride 2025, a celebration that continues to grow not just in size, but in spirit. This event means so much to so many, and this year’s programme reflects the love, resilience and joy of our incredible community.
“Leeds Pride wouldn’t be possible without our team of dedicated volunteers and sponsors. We’re really pleased to have secured some fantastic brand sponsorships already, but we’re still welcoming further support from businesses and organisations who want to stand with the LGBTQ+ community and be part of something truly special.”
