🌈 This Year's Theme: No Place Like Home

The official theme for the Manchester Village Pride Parade 2026 is No Place Like Home.

Inspired by The Wizard of Oz, this year's theme celebrates the idea of home, whether that's the people we love, the communities that support us, or the places where we're free to be ourselves.

We'd love our Gorse Hill Studios group to embrace the theme however you interpret it. Whether that's ruby slippers, rainbows, cosy home comforts, yellow brick roads, emerald greens, or simply wearing something that makes you feel authentically you, let's create a walking group that celebrates belonging, creativity and community.

There really is no place like home.

We can't wait to celebrate Pride with you!
