Getting involved in Summer of Pride

By Nyasha Daley

June 20, 2021

This summer Coventry Pride is taking over the whole summer, from July to October.

We hope that by running a series of events, there will be something for everyone.

We’ve postponed our Why we Pride events and will now run these during Pride and Joy (7th and 8th August) as well as at other points.

As restrictions keep changing we will continue to adapt our events. One things for certain though, it’s going to be a fantastic summer filled with art, live performances, and conversations. We look forward to seeing you at one of our events soon!

There are a number of ways for local artists and performers to get involved in Coventry Pride. Details of how to do so are listed below.

Pride Uprising, Artist Commissions. 6 commissions for £1000 each. Deadline June 25th. Find out more and apply here.

Classically Queer, Musicians call out. Join a brand new LGBT+ music ensemble and perform at Coventry Cathedral Ruins on 15 July. Deadline 1 July. Find out more and apply here.
