Nottingham Pride Event Cancelled

Nottingham Pride Fest Live has been officially canceled for 2024 after a bitter dispute with the historic Nottinghamshire Pride charity, which accused organizers of misleading the public by charging fees under the “Nottingham Pride” name — a tradition that’s been free and inclusive since 1997. The charity’s vice chairperson slammed the move as a betrayal of Pride’s core values. Though organizers renamed the event to “Pride Fest Live” in response to the backlash, the cancellation now means ticket holders can get refunds or use them for Pop Republic on July 4th. Skiddle will handle refunds, and organizers still plan to donate £1 per ticket to the LGBTQ Foundation — though that amount is now uncertain without the event going ahead.
