Glasgow's Pride

Glasgow's Pride is the city's main LGBTQ+ Pride celebration, organised by the volunteer-run community charity G Pride SCIO. After the previous "Pride Glasgow" organisation folded in 2019, Pride in the city was reborn as a free, community-led event — sometimes billed as "Mardi Gla" — held each July. The day centres on a colourful march through Glasgow city centre, followed by live performances, stalls and parties across the Merchant City. It is one of Scotland's largest Pride gatherings by attendance, with a grassroots, inclusive feel. The 2026 event took place on 18 July; the next edition is expected in July 2027.
