More Information (Gaydio — The UK's LGBTQ+ Radio Station is not responsible for external websites)
Pride in Cheltenham takes place across Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 May 2026 at Imperial Gardens, the elegant Regency green space at the heart of the Cotswolds spa town and right next to the Cheltenham Town Hall. The two-day event combines the parade with stages, community stalls, family programming, food and drink across the weekend, drawing communities from across Gloucestershire and the wider Cotswolds.
Pride in Cheltenham's mission is to build a fully inclusive community that unites the town and provides support for all members of the LGBT+ community. The 2026 line-up has not yet been confirmed by the organisers. Imperial Gardens sits between the Promenade and Montpellier, putting the festival site within easy walking distance of much of the town centre, with venues across Cheltenham running their own Pride programming around the festival.
Pride in Cheltenham is free entry. Donations and sponsorship help keep the event accessible. Check the Pride in Cheltenham website for the confirmed parade route, full line-up and accessibility info.
