The huge annual parade that celebrates LGBT+ communities marches through central London once again

That colourful, crowded, loud and unquestionably fun time of year is rearing its head again. No, we're not talking about Notting Hill Carnival, although they do both replace London traffic with joyous partying. We're talking about the Pride in London Parade, which this year sees its biggest ever celebration to date.

Taking place on the last Saturday of June, this 2016's event is promoting the hashtag theme #nofilter and requesting that you 'just be you'. So wear whatever you like, march however you like (although keep these Pride dos and don'ts in mind) and follow the throng of likeminded folk from BBC Broadcasting House at the north end of Regent Street, past Trafalgar Square to Whitehall.

Making the journey will be 231 walking groups and 55 floats – one of which is Pride Punx, the first ever punk float to take part in the Pride in London Parade. There will also be a main stage of entertainment from 12noon until 8pm in Trafalgar Square for a £3 donation. Announced for that stage so far is the fantastic cabaret artist, Michael Twaits with La Voix, a semi-finalist from 'Britain's Got Talent', the Gay Men's Dance Company and many more. You can find the full line-up and times on the Facebook event page.
