Central London did bursts with color as over 1.5 million celebrated Pride in London 2025. The vibrant parade, led by Mayor Sadiq Khan and featuring Chaka Khan’s electrifying performance, marched from Hyde Park Corner to Whitehall, showcasing LGBTQ+ unity.
Every year, London is home to the UK’s largest Pride event, and brings together 500 groups, including LGBTQ+ community organizations, businesses, and partners, with 35,000 participants marching in solidarity.
The parade is led by LGBTQ+ community groups celebrating significant milestones and anniversaries, alongside distinguished supporters, showcasing the rich history and continuing progress of London's diverse LGBTQ+ communities.
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan said: “Hundreds of thousands of Londoners and visitors to our capital are uniting in a sea of colour and creativity — as we march in solidarity and celebration with our LGBTQI+ community.”
“The fantastic parade and celebrations across central London have shown once again that our capital is a beacon of inclusivity and diversity. This year’s event was also a defiant reminder that we must keep fighting for equality and take a stand against those seeking to roll back hard-won rights,” he added.
Also the British Royal Family joined to the event and wrote “Happy Pride!” in a social media post alongside a rainbow and sparkle emoji. They accompanied the message with a special performance by The Coldstream Guards on the grounds of Buckingham Palace.
Happy Pride folks!!!
