We provide lots of opportunities for you to get involved with Manchester Pride, both at Manchester Pride Festival and beyond.
If you'd like to be involved in Manchester Pride Festival, check out our opportunities below!
You can register your interest to join the Manchester Pride Parade Troupe 2024 here.
Each year, we offer artists the chance to perform on our stages. This is a great opportunity to showcase you or your band to thousands of people at our events.
Applications for 2024 are now closed, but you can fill out this expression of interest form for 2025.
The hugely popular Community Lane gives organisations and businesses the chance to showcase their work, spend face-to-face time with visitors, promote goods or services and carry out consultations at the heart of Manchester Pride Festival as part of the Gay Village Party.
Each year we hire a selection of Food Traders to ensure our audiences at Manchester Pride Festival have lots of tasty options to choose from during the celebrations. With tens of thousands of people attending each day of Manchester Pride Festival, we get a lot of hungry visitors!
We're looking for some fantastic food traders to help us create the ultimate street party celebration at this year's Gay Village Party.
We don't just want burgers and fries, we want food from all around the world! We've got a lot of veggies and vegans to feed, so bring along your plant-powered dishes. Sweet treats are always welcome, be it an ice cream van or a waffle wagon - we want you too.
If you would like the chance to sell food as part of the Manchester Pride Festival 2024, please fill out this form.
Our ever-popular market will return again this year, offering a great selection of gifts and memorabilia. With thousands of visitors over the weekend, it's a great opportunity to sell your wares.
We’d love to see traders selling things like jackets, vintage tees, unique jewellery, alternative clothing and accessories, body wear, pet products, and more. The more out there, the better! Anything that customers are able to take home with them is always a winner.
We're also looking for products and memorabilia that people will be able to use straight away, or pop in their pockets! Think cool clothes and festival wear, memorabilia, hats, accessories and more.
Market Stall applications are now open. Fill out this form to apply.
Pride is something everyone feels proud of and can see a little bit of themselves in.
Our communities are at the heart of everything we do, and we'd love to share your Pride experiences with others.
