Pride 365
Hackney Council launched its Hackney Pride 365 programme to celebrate the borough’s historic, diverse and boundary-breaking LGBTQI+ communities in 2017.
The programme runs throughout the year, with community-led events – that include everything from gardening clubs to club nights, picnics to film screenings, history walks to business events – at some of Hackney’s most popular venues and outdoor spaces.
For a catalogue of events that have taken place since 2017 go the Hackney Council Pride 365 web page.
Keep up to date on everything that’s happening by following Hackney Pride 365 on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
