“The
last couple of years have been a financially difficult time for
everyone, including our business partners and sponsors,” says
Committee Chair Tamsin Scott.
“We
have have significantly less money to invest than previous years, but
it is important for our event to be free for everyone to attend, and
have setup a Crowdfunder to help keep Exeter Pride accessible.”

Not

only way to guarantee
entry to Exeter Phoenix’s Pride afterparty. Local venue Pink Moon
are also offering free entry all-night to wristband holders!
“It
is vital now that we can come together, be visible, be proud, and
stand in solidarity with those who are currently unable to do so.
We’re really looking forward to welcoming everyone back; as our
community are what make Exeter Pride the amazing day it is!”
