The first ever Pride Parade through the streets of Bournemouth was such a success in 2008 that it is again at the centre of the Bourne Free weekend, from 10th-12th July this year. Everyone is invited to get dressed up and be part of the parade with organisers hoping to see hundreds of clowns in a huge fancy dress competition for the sexiest, wackiest and weirdest.
The parade starts at 1pm in Meyrick Park and will travel all around town with the biggest crowds expected at busy shopping area ‘The Square’ and local gay village ‘The Triangle’. Big Top entertainment includes a Ringmaster and team of stiltwalkers and jugglers alongside street dancers ‘Dance Pumped’ and Bournemouth community band ‘Samba Panashe’.
