Manchester Pride 2025 - The Social

Join us this August Bank Holiday as we soak up the electric atmosphere of Manchester Pride 2025! 

Once again, we’ll be right in the heart of the action, outside Via in the Gay Village for our Sunday evening social.

The Village will be buzzing, so we’re setting up camp outdoors—look out for the OutdoorLads flag and friendly faces from 7pm onwards. Whether you’re a seasoned member or brand new, come say hello, grab a drink, and celebrate with us in true ODL style.

Important: You’ll need a Pride wristband (Sunday or Weekend pass) to access the Village.
