This year the University of Sussex is once again a proud partner of Brighton and Hove Pride, the UK’s biggest Pride celebration. It’s a bold, beautiful and brilliant celebration of inclusivity, with our community coming together to fundraise, have fun and campaign for LGBTQ+ equality.
The University is delighted to be taking part in the Pride Community Parade on Saturday 6 August with a walking party. We invite current students, staff and alumni to join us in the Parade – and if you take part, you’ll also receive a free weekend ticket to enjoy Fabuloso in the Park at Brighton and Hove Pride on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 August.
With headliners including Christina Aguilera, Paloma Faith and Jake Shears it promises to be an incredible event!

To register your interest in taking part in the Parade with us, please complete this form by 5pm on Friday 1 July.
All are welcome, however places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. We will be operating a waiting list if the Parade is oversubscribed.
What you need to know:
- To take part, you will need to be available from 9am-2pm on Saturday 6 August.
