Manchester Pride, one of the UK's largest LGBTQ+ celebrations, is almost here. The annual four-day event takes place over the August bank holiday weekend (23-26 August) in locations across Manchester city centre.

Joining the previously-announced headline performers Jessie J and Loreen over the August Bank Holiday weekend event, Pride's stellar line-up will also feature Sugababes, fresh from their recent performance at Parklife, as well as Rita Ora, The Greatest Showman star Keala Settle and TV star and DJ Gok Wan.
