This year sees the return of the highly successful *After-Gig* – a punk night presenting some of the *not-so-family-friendly* bands that can’t be featured on the main stage at the *Park Event* as well as the introduction of a brand new punk, metal, rock DJ night to cater for those who have a taste for more alternative music. This year’s focus has been on increasing the offerings to include several sports activities too. The programme features wheelchair basketball where you get to have a go at whizzing around a basketball court with *Sussex Bears Wheelchair Basketball*, the much-loved long-running *Trans Swimming Evening* and Beach Volleyball with *Trans Can Sport*. 2019 sees the return of the *Sports Area* at the *Park Event,* which this year features demonstrations from sports people, personal trainers and fitness groups from the trans communities. For the first time ever, there is also a *Trans Pride Fun Run*. The very first fun run organised by and for people in the trans communities. You can choose to do 2.5km or the full 5km and because it’s a flat tarred route, the run is open to wheelchair users too. After the *Fun Run*, you can pop along to the annual picnic to wind down, hang out and relax. **TPB&H 2019** remain true to their grassroots beginnings and committed to make sure that their main *Park Event* is always free and all their events remain affordable. In order to balance these priorities against the ever-growing cost of staging the event, **TPB&H 2019** have had to seek funding from outside of the community. The vast majority of funding this year has come from grants, with organisers being very selective and only accepting grants and sponsorships from ethical sources that have proven track records supporting **TNBI** communities. They also try and consider the environmental impact as well. This year grants have been received from Brighton and Hove City Council – Sports England, specifically to support the sports events happening throughout the week – The National Lottery Community Fund, specifically to replace the ageing infrastructure, the Co Op Community Fund and Bupa Healthcare. Disabled Toilets have been sponsored by UNISON while the stage and all its surrounding infrastructure this year has been sponsored by Unite South East Region LGBT in memory of **Rianna** who was a member of Unite South East Region LGBT. --- **Saturday, July 20** ****Trans Pride Brighton and Hove March** ****Time: 11:30am – 1pm** ****Place: Outside Marlborough Pub & Theatre, 4 Princes street, Brighton, BN2 1RD** ****Tickets: Free** Gather at 11:30 am for the protest march from the Marlborough Pub in Brighton to the park event in Hove.
