Wigan Pride

Wigan Pride is a free public celebration that showcases the borough’s inclusive spirit. The event features a daytime community parade through the town centre. Multiple stages present music, drag and community performances. The 2025 edition marked the event’s 10th anniversary on Saturday 16 August. Local partners, including Wigan Council and sponsors, support delivery. Organisers run grant schemes to encourage creative parade entries. Accessibility and family‑friendliness are core principles of the day. Stall space allows charities and services to connect with residents. Volunteer opportunities enable people to get involved in production. Dates and programme details are released on the website and socials.
