Pride Director Dulcie Weaver, said: “Brighton Pride is so much more than a one-day pop festival It is so much more than headline acts and main stage line-ups. It is a proud celebration of everything that is wonderful in our diverse and delightful LGBTQ community. It’s about having fun with friends and loved ones. It’s about visibility, equality, campaigning and fundraising for The Rainbow Fund as we join together as a community.
“Brighton Pride’s campaign theme for 2014 Freedom To Live encapsulates the true ethos of the festival. This Pride we will be free to walk hand in hand with those we love, on the streets where we live. So many across the globe are not so lucky. Brighton Pride is our opportunity to stand beside them, to make the connection and say loudly and proudly we all deserve the Freedom To Live.”
