review

Having nipped down to Albert Square in front of the Town Hall to find out more about Gaydio’s outside broadcasts, it turned out to be a great place to watch the huge Pride parade, complete with running commentary identifying all the fantastic floats.

It was great to see such a wide range of spectators, including family groups of shoppers draped with feather boas, cheering and waving rainbow flags. Manchester certainly knows how to put on a show!

loved it?

Rachel grabbed her spot on Whitworth Street to capture the Manchester Pride 2007 Parade on its last leg of a journey that started in Liverpool Street and wound its way past Canal Street and the Gay Village.
