It is with a heavy heart we have to announce that Calderdale Pride 2026 will not be going ahead this year.

As many of you know, this event costs a huge amount of money to put on each year for you all to enjoy, and we have always committed to keeping this free for all to attend.

We fundraise all year round and with the help of incredible sponsors over previous years, we have been able to achieve this. This year however has proven to the toughest yet.

We have seen the difficulties small prides have faced along with the major pride events in the UK. With a difficult environment to apply for grants and funding of which we have previously been successful in, we have had no choice but to come to this decision.

We continue to fundraise and seek sponsorship in order to hold Calderdale Pride 2027 and there will be events coming your way very soon and hopefully this extra time helps us raise the much needed funds.

A huge thank you to Dean Clough for their unwavering support, we cannot wait to return.

Please keep supporting your local Pride’s. We need you more than ever!
