Coalville’s pride event to return for the second time in August

Pride in Coalville is set to return for its second year on 1 August, at a new location in Coalville Park.
The event which celebrates the LGBT community was held for the first time in 2025 and organisers say it was well-attended by 1,000 people, despite a weather forecast of thunderstorms.
Lead event organiser, Keiran Lee-Ridgway, said event would remain free to attend this year and will aim to create a space “where everyone feels welcome and celebrated”.
“It gives people a purpose to stay around Coalville, because most people go further afield [to stay connected with the LGBT community],” he said.
