Pride in London: The best LGBT events in the capital

Join the LGBT community and celebrate freedom, happiness and love, no matter your sexuality

Pride is back, and this year's celebrations look likely to be bigger than ever.

The capital's LGBT community and its supporters will be taking to the streets for the official Pride parade on the main weekend of 25-26 June, but there are far more official and unofficial events in London between now and then, too.

With all bases covered, from a family-friendly tea event to the best of London's nightlife, there's no excuse not to get involved and be loud and proud with London as the capital celebrates freedom of sexuality through fun and creative events.

This year's events will have extra significance due to the horrific shootings in a gay nightclub in Orlando earlier this month. If you want to show your support for the victims, Dalston Superstore will be hosting a fundraising dance event.
