Pride in Hull

18/06/2026

GIVE US A HAND!

Rome wasn't built in a day, but pride happens in just 1! That's why we're on the look out for some helpful, organised, cooperative people who are ready to get stuck in on the day!

As a volunteer with Pride in Hull you will be tasked with different responsibilities including setting up stalls, clean-up and a few other things.

Here's a few words from our Trustee of Volunteers, Kirsty Tock;
"Volunteers are the backbone of Pride in Hull, which is a completely free event to attend. Everyone at Pride is a Volunteer and gives their time to make a very special and joyful day each year for our LGBTQIA+ community.

Without volunteers Pride would not exist and we would love people to join us who would like to meet new people, be creative, work as part of a small but hard working team, to support the wider LGBTQIA+ community in spending a day in Hull being free to be their true authentic selves."

Spotlight! 🎨

We're happy to share our friends at Studio Eleven have put on an exhibition dedicated to celebrate Hull Gay Pride. Read about it down below and go and check out their page for more info.

New Exhibition entitled: Provocative Pots

Contemporary Narrative Ceramics by Chris Turrell and Simon Dredge
Presented by Studio Eleven Gallery

10th June – 2nd August 2026
To celebrate 25 Years of Gay Pride in Hull 2026, at a time when identity, memory, and cultural history remain fiercely contested, Studio Eleven Gallery presents Provocative Pots — a bold new exhibition of ceramic works by Liverpool-based artists Chris Turrell and Simon Dredge. Through clay, porcelain, glaze, image, and narrative, the exhibition confronts the enduring overlap of queerness, visibility, politics, and survival.

Far from decorative objects, these works insist on ceramics as a radical storytelling medium — one capable of carrying histories often omitted from public memory. Both artists draw deeply from personal and collective LGBQT experience, asking what it means to preserve identity in fragile times, and how beauty itself can become an act of resistance.

They will also be DJing some of the big LGBQT dance - floor hits from the gallery on Pride in Hull, Sat 25th July.

🕯️ Today, we remember the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting.

On 12 June 2016, 49 people were killed and many others injured at Pulse in Orlando, in an attack targeting LGBTQIA+ people and a space of safety, joy and community.

Ten years later, we remember those whose lives were taken, stand with survivors and loved ones, and honour the strength of the communities that continue to heal and organise in the face of hate.

We remember. We mourn. We continue the fight for safety, dignity and equality.
