Wells Pride will return on Saturday, 8 August, bringing colour, music and celebration to the city centre.

The day will begin with brunch at The White Hart from 10am, giving people a chance to meet before the parade gets under way.

The parade will assemble on Cathedral Green at noon before setting off along Sadler Street at 12.15pm. It will then head down High Street and make its way towards the bandstand on the Recreation Ground, where the main event will continue.

Organisers say there will be a mixture of dancing, singing, speeches and other entertainment. Further details of the full line-up had not been confirmed at the time of publication.

Wells Pride was started in 2024 and was created as an annual event to embrace diversity and promote inclusion and LGBTQ+ rights in the city.

Residents and visitors are being encouraged to keep an eye on the Wells Pride 2026 Facebook page for updates nearer the time. Enquiries can also be emailed to [email protected].
