Dundee Pride
About This Event
Dundee Pride started in September 2018, when around 8,000 people turned up for a march from City Square that organisers had expected to draw 5,000. That crowd pushed it the next year into Slessor Gardens, the waterfront events space beside the V&A, which holds about 11,000.
It now runs as a one-day free festival: a Pride Village of community groups and local business stalls opens at 11am, and the main stage starts around 12:30.
The 2026 edition, which organisers called their sixth, was on Saturday 27 June, headlined by Drag Race UK winner Danny Beard. The 2027 date hadn't been announced when we checked.
