**Thame**, a small town in **Oxfordshire**, has announced its first ever Pride will be “inclusive” and “welcoming”.

**Thame Pride**, which will celebrate the market town’s LGBTQ+ community, is due to take place on June 21 with a Pride Village, complete with stalls and a main stage hosted by drag queens. The **London Gay Men’s Chorus** will be performing at the event.

The event’s director **David Dawson**, a town councillor, said the “exciting” event would have “fun for all the family”.

“We are an increasingly diverse town, we are a very inclusive town full of welcoming people.”

“The point of pride is to demonstrate that publicly and say ‘yes, this is who we are as a town – we’re a welcoming town to everybody, it doesn’t matter who you are’,” he added.

Mr Dawson added that local artists would also feature on the billing for the festival which will be free to attend.

“Thame, and the surrounding villages as well, is just jam-packed full of really good talent,” he added.
