The fourth West Lothian Pride event will be taking place on Saturday 28 July 2018.

Join Us!

#WLPride2018

The event is FREE, but for Health and Safety reasons we do ask that all attendees register their attendance, this allows us trackapproximate number of attendees. Registering your attendance will ensure we can keep you updated with all our plans and have sufficient stewards and first aiders available.

The purpose of the event is to provide the people of West Lothian with an opportunity to celebrate and support lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people within our local community.

Come along to our Pride Village at West Lothian College, Livingston to soak up the carnival atmosphere and join us for a fun filled day of marching, guest speakers, live entertainment and much more.

The pride village will be open from 1.00pm and you can browse the information stalls and stock up all Pride essentials (flags, whistles, garlands etc) prior to the march. All participants are encouraged to dress up, bring along their own banners etc, to ensure we have a colourful West Lothian Pride.
