Pride my luvvers!!

GET YOUR PRIDE ON PONIES!! It’s Bristol Pride day 2025 and we are PRIDING THIS HECC!
Apologies for the delay in posting this, I was HOPING to hear from Boardroom but no luck sadly!
SO we are booked into the Birkett Tap from midday, or at least whenever the parade makes it round to Baldwin street! Of course you don’t HAVE to bedeck yourselves in flags and pins and colours of all hues but you’ll stand out more if you don’t!
TIMETABLE:
Earlier – I may drop in on the Avon Fire & Rescue Service Pride breakfast at Temple Back Fire station before hitting the premeet, anyone is welcome to drop by there from 08:30am onwards, though I’ll probably be there more like 9-9:30!
09:30am – premeet at Starbucks, shorter than usual, leaving NO LATER than 10:00am, potentially earlier
10:15am – Meet at the “Castle Park Bronze Sculpture” – put exactly that into google maps and you’ll find it, but I have included a screenshot below with reference to the church in the park
10:45am-12:00pm – PRIDE PARADE – we WILL be walking so if you’d like any assistance let us know on Discord ahead of time and/or ask on the day but (within reason) we are a helpful lot so will do our best to help. Parade officially starts at 10:45am but we all know it takes forever to actually move out of the park, and we usually end up arriving around St. Nick’s market and Baldwin Street around midday or so. If we get there early, we will likely wait in The Centre for a bit then double back. If we arrive later then straight into Birkett Tap for our table which is booked from Midday
12:00pm (Midday) – 5pm – Birkett Tap, board/card games, chatting, arting, being gay, whatever takes our fancy. If you want to go to the Pride festival you are more than welcome but officially the meet will be ducking out of the parade before it goes up to Clifton!
Official end time is 5pm but that’s just when y’all are no longer my responsibility so don’t let that stop you continuing the FUNFUNFUN!!
As always, we may end up heading into town, moving venue or otherwise leaving Birkett Tap later in the day if the mood strikes or the pub gets rowdy or what have you. Keep an eye on Discord for any changes or updates if you can’t find the group at any point!
