Saltash Pride March

At 12 noon on the 14 September 2024, Pride will march through the town centre of Saltash with the world’s largest Pride flag.

The march will begin at Victoria Gardens and finish at Waterside. Please gather at the start from 11:45am onwards.

Cornwall Pride Volunteer Marshals will line the march route down Fore Street. The march will take approximately 30 minutes.

Members of the public are welcome to join the march on the day on foot but if you would like to take part in the march with a vehicle (such as a fire engine or a police car) please contact us in advance to arrange this.

The march can get very crowded and lively but it is good fun. There will be music and celebration as we march to show support for LGBTQ+ people in Saltash , Cornwall and around the world.

Volunteer Cornwall Pride Marshals and the Police will be available to provide assistance during the march.

The march aims to be civil, peaceful, safe and enjoyable for all. We are pleased to welcome a number of local organisations and their representatives who will be marching together with Cornwall Pride showing their love and support.

Organisations Marching at Saltash Pride

Show Your Support

Pride is colourful and joyful and you can show your support by wearing colourful clothing, waving a flag or by decorating your face with rainbow makeup for example.

There are a variety of LGBTQ+ flags that represent different identities and orientations and if you would like to show your support for a specific one, we have written a handy guide to the LGBTQ+ flags.

Some people really go to town and decorate their hats, wear angel wings or throw on a gorgeous sparkly dress but do whatever makes you feel right and most comfortable. Pride in Falmouth is a Safe Space for everyone.

Cornwall Pride have a huge range of pride flags to purchase online in advance of the march and celebration so why not get totally Pride ready and have your rainbow gear handy.

Saltash’s Pride Celebration

Join us at Jubilee Green any time from 12:30 as the Pride march finishes and the Pride celebration begins.

Saltash’s Pride celebration features a performance stage with live entertainment all afternoon and into the evening.

There will be live singers, comedians, dancers and more. We have sourced a range of LGBTQ+ supportive acts from across Cornwall and beyond to help us make Saltash Pride special.

You’ll see drag queens and drag kings, fabulous cabaret singers and live musicians too.

All of Saltash’s entertainment will be family friendly.

An all day bar is available for those aged 18 and over. Food and drink retailers will also be providing refreshments through the day.

You are welcome to bring your own food and soft drinks into the celebration but supporting our bar and vendors supports the event and helps keep it free.

Cornwall Pride will also be bringing its range of Pride merchandise so you can stock up on flags, pin badges and all things rainbow for the celebration.

In addition to that, a range of Cornwall and Saltash based organisations are represented at Pride and will be happy to chat.

Support groups will also have tents at Pride to reach out and raise awareness of the services they have available to you.

If you need a break at any point, we are providing a safe quiet space hosted by our volunteer event marshals. No reason needed, just pop in and take a breath.

We can’t wait to celebrate Saltash Pride with you.
