Bracknell Forest Pride 2026

Join us for Bracknell Forest Pride 2026 on Saturday 18 July with our fabulous host Fonda, who has more than 20 years of spreading sparkle, and laughter and will help make Bracknell Forest Pride a celebration to remember, a day filled with glitter, family fun, support, and advice! 

The day will begin in Bond Square with a quiet hour from 11am.  The main festivities will commence with an accessible walking parade at 11.45am from outside Easthampstead Works followed by music, dance performances, and so much more!  

Running until 5pm, the free event will feature live music, entertainment, food stalls, family-friendly activities including free face painting and community information stands, creating a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere for people of all ages.

For the fourth year, Bracknell Forest Council and The Lexicon, in collaboration with Bracknell Town Council and local community groups, have come together to create fun-filled, family-friendly event celebrating and supporting the diversity of the LGBTQIA+ community.
