Join us on the UAL float at the Pride in London parade 2025!

Join the UAL LGBTQ+ Staff Network for one of the biggest events in our calendar. We have been accepted into this year’s Pride in London parade! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

We have secured a float (red double decker bus) for the parade which is taking place on the 5th July. We have spaces on the float and walking spaces to fill and we are so excited to be able to offer these out to UAL staff and students for you to celebrate. These will be on a first come first served basis as tickets are limited.

We will be starting the day with a breakfast/brunch at Cheeky Chicos from 9:30am where we have exclusive hire of the whole venue. This is the perfect chance for us all to meet and get to know each other out of the hustle and bustle of the parade. 🥂

A full breakfast/brunch style buffet will be served (vegetarian and vegan options available). Free flowing prosecco, beer, teas & coffees and juice will also be provided for free. We will provide some of the glitters and paints to get all glitz and glam, but please do come prepared with your own also. Please do bring along a t-shirt of your choosing if you would like to have this printed/ stamped for the parade- we have have the gadgets and gizmos to do this for you on the day. ✨

We will then set off all together after brunch to meet our float in the parade in central London. 🙌🚌

We will have a designated time and entry point to join the parade and we must ensure to enter all together with our group wristbands. More information about meeting points (if you cannot join the brunch) will be released at a later date. Please ensure to plan your travel ahead of time to the brunch as this day will be extremely busy on all transport links.

Please note if you register for a parade ticket you are automatically signed up to the brunch. If you want to attend the brunch only and not the parade please choose 'BREAKFAST ONLY' ticket.

Please note that upon entry to the parade to the completion of the route this will take up to a minimum of 4 hours. You must be available to march with us for the duration of the event.

Anyone with accessibility requirements or questions please contact lgbtq.network@arts.ac.uk.

Plus ones external to UAL cannot be guaranteed at this time, should we have availability once staff and students have signed up to the parade this will be offered on a first come first served basis. Feel free to drop Carley Owen (c.owen@arts.ac.uk) a message to register your interest for a plus one for the parade.
