Large crowds are expected for Blackpool Pride today.

Organiser say the event is more than a party - it’s a community-driven initiative designed to raise essential funds for Blackpool Pride while bringing people together in celebration of inclusivity, diversity, and entertainment.

The annual popular parade will take place this morning.

Meanwhile, bars and venues across the resort will also be hosting special performances and fundraising activities this weekend.
