June is Pride Month, and at Urban Apartments, we celebrate and welcome the LGBTQ+ community. Bristol, known for its inclusivity, is gearing up for an incredible pride event this coming month!
Bristol Pride runs from June 29th to July 13th this year, with the main Pride Day happening on Saturday, July 13th. This unique and significant event not only celebrates the LGBTQ+ community but also fosters connections among people. Pride is about showcasing our wonderfully diverse community, overcoming prejudice and hatred, reducing isolation, and demonstrating to LGBTQ+ members that they are not alone.
The Human League will be 2024’s festival headliner, along with a full day of amazing performances including the electronica duo Ladytron, Claire Richards from STEPS, and indie-pop sensation Georgia, all set to energise the Bristol Pride Main Stage.
In addition to The Human League, the LGBTQ+ Charity has unveiled the complete Main Stage lineup featuring 90s legend Rozalla, MantarayBryn, synth band CatBear, Basement Jaxx singer and Ronnie Scott’s resident Vula Malinga, Sing Out Bristol, Swedish pop royalty Charlotte Perrelli, and BBC Project Ikon winner Dylan and The Moon.
Organisers have also introduced a new stage, the Uplift Stage, aiming to showcase Bristol’s diverse music and performance scene. Partnering with local event makers Punka and Brizzle Boyz, this stage will feature music performances from Bled, Luna Kali, and Bristol legends The Menstrual Cramps. Performers like Laddie Gaga, Kurt Sovain, Oliver Assets, House of Xanarchy, Fluxx Wyldly, and Small Willy Nelson will highlight Bristol’s vibrant performance and cabaret scene. Read all about the performers here.
