**Organisers of Tran\* Pride** have announced that this years Trans\* Pride March on Saturday, July 27 will not go ahead and celebrations for Trans\*Pride will commence in New Steine Gardens from noon.

**The Statement issued on the Trans\* Pride website, reads:**

**To all Trans\* Pride attendees**

> *“It is with a tinge of sadness we have to announce that due to time constraints and the level of detail and planning required to hold a safe Trans\*Pride March, we realise this cannot be done this year.*  
>  
> *“The Trans\* Pride committee assembled and began planning at late notice just a few months ago and there seems to be a ridiculous amount of red tape and money involved with just walking together up St James Street as a large group. We thank you for you understanding on this matter and for your continuing support. We fully intend to hold a march next year.*  
>  
> *“Brighton & Hove Police support us fully in making this decision as being the right one for this year. This way we can concentrate on delivering a great first event at New Steine Gardens.*  
>  
> *“We are, however still holding a fantastic event in New Steine gardens (at the top end of St James Street), where we encourage everyone to attend Trans\* Pride in the Park from noon to 6pm, and , it’s absolutely FREE.*  
>  
> *“Bring your banners and flyers and enjoy the community stalls, including Gendered Intelligence, Mermaids, Stonewall Housing, FTM Brighton, Clare Project, My Genderation & Translations (TPOC) will be on-hand to chat about filming and documenting the event.*  
>  
> *“Our stage manager promises us some fantastic entertainment and has booked a wide range of performers. Comedian Claire Parker will be the compare, introducing some fantastic tran\* musicians, including CN Lester and Wilde, while Bethany Black headlines with some comedy. We will also have community speakers and spoken word.*  
>  
> *“There will be a cluster of small businesses offering refreshments in the park.*  
>  
> *“The events ends at 6pm, so please begin to leave the park, to allow the stall-holders to pack up.*  
>  
> *“That leaves just enough time to grab a bite to eat and throw on your dancing shoes for Trans\*Frau at the Blind Tiger. The event has live entertainment from 8pm until 10pm, and then DJ’s from 10pm till late.”*
