Marcus Taylor, Chair of the Board at Salford Pride, has shared what we should expect from the Pink Picnic 2025: “We are very excited to welcome everyone back to the Pink Picnic this summer. LGBTQ+ events like the Pink Picnic continue to grow in importance, not only as Salford’s official pride celebration but as Greater Manchester’s largest grassroots pride event.
Every year, the Pink Picnic brings together a vibrant mix of local LGBTQ+ talent and allies to create something truly special. With show-stopping performances, from Cher Lloyd to Banksie, inspiring speakers and family-friendly activities, the Pink Picnic promises even more fabulous unforgettable moments.
We can’t wait to reveal more over the coming months, including new acts and activities. As discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community remains high, we want everyone, including allies, to feel welcomed, get involved and stand proud with us.”
