Oxford Pride 2025

The Greatest Show

Oxford Pride 2025 brought the city to life with The Greatest Show, a dazzling celebration of diversity, inclusion, and queer joy. Held on Saturday, 7 June 2025, this year’s Pride was one of our biggest and boldest events to date.

The day kicked off with our much-loved Pride Parade, winding through the heart of Oxford, followed by our main event at South Park. The celebrations continued with a full day of entertainment, food, and fun. Our main stage featured an incredible lineup of local and national talent who kept the energy high and the dance floor alive.

This year’s theme – The Greatest Show – was a tribute to the extraordinary spirit of the LGBTQIA+ community: bold, resilient, creative, and unapologetically proud. Together, we turned Oxford into a stage for joy, resistance, and visibility.
