Pride Ashford is all set and ready for Saturday 20th June. With live music and performances at the Bandstand in the town centre from 11am, followed by our March which will depart from the town centre at 2pm and onto our Pride Ashford Party in Civic Park until 8pm. 

Our official after party partner is Coachworks who have the Spice Girls Experience performing; you can purchase tickets for this on their website by clicking here.
 
Behind the scenes, our Trustees and Committee team, who are all volunteers, have been working hard to make an event Ashford can be proud of. We've been working hard all year and thanks to our sponsors - Brakes, Barratts Mini, McDonalds, Stantec, Multi Consult UK, Sainsburys, EK360, Tesco, the support of Ashford Borough Council as well as donations from the local business community, we're able to put on this fantastic event. Without our volunteers and sponsors, it would be impossible to run Pride Ashford. We are truly grateful for their support.
 
We have an exceptional line up of lots of amazing acts and performers this year and we're so excited about how it's come together. Our headliner, Kate Butch, is a huge bonus for us this year after their appearance on season 5 of Ru Paul's Drag Race and last seasons RuPaul's Drag Race: UK vs. the World. 
 
Pride Ashford is active in the community all year with monthly Pride socials, East Kent Pride Runners, Young Pride Ashford group and other events throughout the year like our popular Drag Boogie Bingo nights!
 
The Pride Ashford team look forward to welcoming you all to our day on Saturday 20th June. For more information and what to expect, click here to visit the Pride Ashford website.
