Manchester Pride is kicking things up a notch for the 2025 bash. This year will see the return of the iconic Gay Village Party on Friday 22nd - Sunday 24th August 2025 on Sackville Gardens, but also the brand-new Mardi Gras party over at Depot Mayfield on Saturday 23rd - Sunday 24th August 2025. 

The legendary Gay Village Party is back! Across two stages, there'll be performances from Samantha Mumba, B*Witched, Sister Sledge ft. Kathy Sledge, Diana Vickers, Gaydio Dance Arena, and more.

Then there’s Mardi Gras, a brand-new event featuring high-camp, high-glam queer performances. 

Olly Alexander (Years & Years), Leigh-Anne, Billy Porter, Big Freedia, Jodie Harsh, K-Klass, Gok Wan, Tulisa, and more have been confirmed so far, with more names still to be announced. There’ll of course be drag royalty and queer collectives taking over the venue too.
