BSU makes Bristol Pride Day debut
We made our Bristol Pride Day debut on Saturday 8 July 2023 as a group of colleagues, students and alumni joined thousands of others in the annual Parade March.
We had a pop-up stand at the festival where colleagues gave out Pride-themed temporary tattoos and pin badges to complement our sponsorship of the Queer Vision Film Festival element of this year’s Bristol Pride.
We're thrilled to be taking part in Bristol Pride again this year!
About Bristol Pride 2025
28 June – 13 July 2025
We're proud that Bath Spa University will be a key part of the Bristol Pride celebrations for a third year. Bristol Pride is a unique and important event that celebrates the LGBTQIA+ community offering the chance to connect people.
As well as showcasing our wonderfully diverse community, Pride is about overcoming prejudice, hatred, reducing isolation, and showing members of the LGBTQIA+ community that they are not alone. Bristol pride works year round to challenge homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia and promote equality and diversity for all, through various events, school visits, consultation services and lobbying.
