About This Event

Edinburgh Pride Mardi Gras is Scotland's capital's annual LGBTQ+ Pride event, held in June. The parade draws approximately 25,000 people through the city centre with a festival village at the end point. Edinburgh Pride has a distinctive character shaped by the city's Festival culture — more arts-oriented and performance-focused than many comparable events. The event includes community programming, exhibitions, club nights at GHQ, CC Bloom's and other venues across the city, and special Fringe-adjacent queer cultural events.
