Northern Pride has unveiled a series of 'satellite events' accompanying this year’s Pride in the City, the annual LGBTQIA+ event which Newcastle hosts.
This year, the main event on July 19-21 has moved from the Town Moor and will occupy multiple locations throughout the city.
Stephen Patterson, chief executive of event partner Newcastle NE1, said: "We are extremely excited to see this year’s line-up for Pride in the City, not only for the main celebrations weekend in July, but for the events leading up to it."
Lead-up events include a celebration concert with Northern Proud Voices at Newcastle Cathedral on July 5, an interactive singalong screening of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert at Tyneside Cinema on July 10, and more.
Director of Northern Pride, Ste Dunn, said: "With the satellite events we want to create as many different experiences and opportunities as possible to celebrate and highlight the vibrant and beautiful queer community."
