Doncaster Pride

Doncaster Pride is a Gay Pride event held annually in Doncaster, England, usually in August. It is South Yorkshire's biggest Gay Pride event, and It was first held in 2007.[1] Currently the audience figures for the day's event is close to 20,000.[citation needed] The Patron of Doncaster Pride is Sheridan Smith.[2]

Doncaster Pride has been held at the Keepmoat Stadium, the racecourse, and is currently held at Doncaster's Sir Nigel Gresley Square.[3][4] The event is funded by local businesses, award foundations, various charitable organizations and donations from the public. The event includes a variety of activities for all ages, two stages and a float parade through the town.

History

The first event was put together in just 3 months in 2007 and attracted more than 1,000 people on a budget of £15,000 (equivalent to £26,000 in 2023).[5][6] The following year drew a crowd of up to 8,000 people.[7]

Doncaster Pride 2018 saw over 3,000 people in the Parade through the town, and there were 8 free hours of entertainment on two stages.[8]

The event was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The event returned in person in 2022, with Stephanie Hirst headlining it.[9] 2022 also saw the event expand accessibility, hiring sign language interpreters, creation of quiet spaces, and expansion of facilities for disabled attendees.[1]
