The idea

Following our most successful Pride ever in 2025, we are back!
However, we need your support more than ever to continue delivering our family friendly, LGBT+ friendly, amazing day out in the park.

We will host a free event for all in Wilton Park on the 28th June 2026.
To do this, we need support from the lovely people of Kirklees and beyond to raise funds to pay for everything - from acts who bring life to the show, to toilets for our visitors, to security who make sure the event runs smoother than ever.

We will have all the amenities you know and love from past years - acts, local businesses, rides, music, food, vibes, and kid friendly activities such as sports and games.

Every pound of your support makes this possible and keeps Batley, Birstall, & Northern Kirklees inclusive.

We also have sponsorship opportunities for businesses - contact us for more information!

Can't donate? We need volunteers! Anyone is more than welcome to help us deliver today - just get in touch.

What we'll deliver

  • Live acts and Music
  • Stalls for local businesses and food vendors, plus visible opportunities for business sponsors to show their support
  • Family-friendly activities including games and sports
  • Essential event infrastructure: toilets, security, first aiders, staging, and sound
  • Vibes
  • A welcoming Pride atmosphere where everyone can celebrate safely and openly
  • Sponsorship Opportunities

Why it's a great idea

Supporting this event means backing a small, dedicated team working to bring a day of joy to the Batley, Birstall and wider Kirklees communities. It creates an open, welcoming space where people can celebrate unity in our differences, enjoy great food and music, and show their support. Your support helps bring the community together, lets anyone struggling with their sexuality or gender identity know they’re not alone, and boosts local businesses at the same time.
