London Pride Parade 2025

Free

The massive annual London Pride Parade will make its colourful, joyous way once more throughout the city’s centre in celebration of LGBTQIA+ communities and the core values of visibility, unity, and equality.

It’s free to turn up to show support and watch the parade in all its splendour, as flag bearers, floats and participants in dazzling outfits fill the streets. This year, the Parade runs from Hyde Park Corner, through Piccadilly Circus, down Haymarket and along Cockspur Street to Trafalgar Square, finishing at Whitehall Place; you can download a map from the Pride website (it’s still badged as 2024 but don’t worry, it’s the same route for 2025!). Organisers expect the biggest crowds around Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square.

The parade brings together over 500 groups, including LGBTQ+ community organisations, businesses and partners, with 35,000 participants marching in solidarity. Only registered groups are allowed to join the organised parade, although you’re welcome to join the end once it has officially passed and the barriers have been taken down.
