Waltham Forest Pride 2023
Waltham Forest Pride 2023 will be hosted by ELOP (East London Out Project). It has been made possible thanks to the support of the Fellowship Square Arts and Culture Grant from the London Borough of Waltham Forest.
Waltham Forest Pride 2023 will take place in Fellowship Square on 29 July 2023 from 12pm to 8pm. It will be brought to life by the wonderful talent and contributions of the local LGBTQIA+ community.
There will be a range of stalls, from crafts and goods to face-painting, taster sessions, and information stalls. With fantastic performances, you can also hear from local speakers and enjoy delicious food and drink, plus there’ll be plenty of activities for children during the day.
Join us for this joyful day of dancing in the fountains and celebrating Waltham Forest Pride 2023!
