Headlined by Edinburgh Fringe Best Comedy Show 2025 winner Sam Nicoresti, the evening also features some of the Channel Islands’ finest performers, including stand-up comedy, drag, live music, camp karaoke and plenty of surprises along the way.

Whether you’re visiting the islands for Pride or you’re a local looking to kick off the weekend in style, this is the perfect way to get into the Pride spirit before the celebrations begin.

Expect big laughs, unforgettable performances and an atmosphere that’s warm, welcoming and unmistakably Pride.

Doors open at 7.30pm, with the show starting shortly afterwards. Gather your friends, grab a drink and get ready for a fantastic start to Channel Islands Pride Weekend.

Wake up, grab some breakfast and kick off the biggest day of Pride Weekend with a spectacular morning of drag, laughter and fabulous entertainment.

Hosted by the sensational Mercedes Bends and Miss Leigh Ding, the Pride Drag Breakfast is packed with dazzling performances, outrageous comedy, live vocals and plenty of playful audience interaction. With a few special guests joining the fun, you can expect glamour, camp and enough charisma to set the tone for an unforgettable day.

Whether you’re a lifelong drag fan or experiencing it for the very first time, this is a wonderfully welcoming way to begin your Pride celebrations. Relax over breakfast, enjoy the show and soak up the excitement as the countdown to the Pride Parade begins.

By the time the final number ends, you’ll be more than ready to head to Market Square and join thousands of others as Channel Islands Pride gets underway.

There’s something magical about the moments before a Pride Parade begins. Old friends reunite, new friendships are made, rainbow flags appear from every direction and, for many, it’s the first time they’ve stood in a crowd where they can simply be themselves.

From 1.00pm, Market Square comes alive as thousands of people gather for the start of Channel Islands Pride. Before the Parade sets off, Guernsey’s legendary drag queen Magenta will officially welcome everyone to Pride, share a few important announcements and get the celebrations underway.

Then, as always, the incredible Samba Burros will lead the Parade through the streets of St Peter Port. Their infectious rhythms fill the town with energy as thousands of people march together towards the Pride Village at the Bathing Pools, creating one of the most iconic moments of the weekend.

Arrive early to find your friends, soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the entertainment before the Parade departs at 2.00pm.

The Pride Parade is the heart of Channel Islands Pride—a joyful celebration of our community and a powerful reminder that everyone deserves to live openly, safely and with pride.

Thousands of people from across the Channel Islands and beyond come together to march through the streets of St Peter Port, celebrating diversity, inclusion and belonging. At the heart of the Parade are our iconic 50-metre Pride flags—a spectacular Rainbow Flag alongside our unique 50-metre Community Flag, bringing together ten LGBTQ+ identities in one powerful symbol of inclusion.

As the Parade makes its way to the Pride Village at the Bathing Pools, every step sends a simple but powerful message:

Everyone belongs.

As the Pride Parade arrives at the Bathing Pools, the celebrations move up a gear.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Castle Cornet and Guernsey’s beautiful coastline, the Pride Village is where the celebrations continue throughout the afternoon and into the evening. It’s a place to celebrate, connect, discover something new and enjoy the unique atmosphere that makes Channel Islands Pride so special.

Explore community stalls, enjoy delicious food and drink, dance in front of the Main Stage, discover the Silent Disco, relax in the Quiet Zone or spend time in the Family Zone. Whether you’re catching up with friends, making new ones or simply soaking up the atmosphere, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

As the day unfolds, the energy builds towards an unforgettable evening of live entertainment before the Main Stage closes at 9.00pm. With music, laughter and thousands of people celebrating together beside the sea, there’s nowhere quite like the Channel Islands Pride Village.

The Main Stage may close at 9.00pm, but the celebrations don’t have to end there.

Relax, unwind and relive your favourite Pride moments in a laid-back atmosphere with great music, good company and plenty of Pride spirit.

If you’re not ready for the party to end, head to Mojitos where Magenta will be hosting a night of fantastic music, a packed dancefloor and a celebration that keeps the Pride energy going.

Whichever after-party you choose, it’s the perfect way to end an incredible day at Channel Islands Pride.

There’s no better way to round off Pride Weekend than with one final celebration by the pool.

Join us on Sunday afternoon as we come together to relax, unwind and soak up the last few hours of Channel Islands Pride. Whether you’re taking a dip, lounging poolside, catching up with friends or making some new ones, it’s the perfect opportunity to reflect on an unforgettable weekend.

With fabulous entertainment from Miss Leigh Ding, Mercedes Bends and special guests, plus music from Gaydio DJ Craig Law, expect a laid-back atmosphere filled with laughter, great music and plenty of Pride spirit.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Guernsey’s coastline, the Pride Pool Party is the perfect finale to a weekend of celebration, community and connection.

Leave with amazing memories, new friendships and the countdown already on for the next Channel Islands Pride.
