Thousands of people came together to celebrate the LGBT+ community at Croydon PrideFest on Saturday.

The event kicked off with the Pride Walking Parade which travelled from North End, through central Croydon to the main festival area in the Queen’s Gardens.

Crowds were kept entertained by a full programme of performances by musicians, DJs and cabaret performers. As well as a variety of acts for all to enjoy, there were also vintage and craft stalls, street food and drinks on offer, as well as children’s entertainment.
