EVENT INFO
Doors open 6pm with a 9pm finish.
The Portobello Tap will be serving alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.

TICKET PRICES
£10 - I am employed and have some expendable income.
£5 - I may stress about meeting my basic needs and have no or very limited expendable income.

In order to make Porty Pride more accessible to those on a low income but still community-funded, we use a sliding scale ticket price for our events. You can choose what you pay based on your circumstances – you won’t be asked for any proof/ID. We just ask that you are honest!
