Isle of Wight Pride & Beach Party

The Isle of Wight Welcomes UK Pride festival and Beach Party

Calling all ODL Guys, Isle of Wight need our support on this Fabulous Island.

The event will be a social event, wearing our Red T-Shirts, giving out ODL Flyers and running a stall within the beach market.

Once the parade has finished, feel free to enter the beach party arena (remember your towels, sun cream and trunks) for which I have your free tickets and take time to enjoy the atmosphere. I will also require volunteers on rota to support ODL stall.

Once you have visited the Isle of Wight, you’ll realise that there is something for everybody. People from around the world visit this Island time and time again – and Isle of Wight Pride aims to build a legacy that will encourage LGBT visitors to their shores all year round. The word is out about Isle of Wight Pride and people can’t wait to join them for the celebrations on July 21st – and many are looking forward to making a weekend of it. Come and share the secret.

Post pride walk on Sunday to be advised in June
