Hello and welcome to our information station for Yeovil Does Pride 2025!
We’re getting closer to the day. Saturday 6th September 2025 and our plans are in place, just the last tweaks to make.
The format for Yeovil Does Pride will be like previous years. We will be marching through the town centre and then heading through Ninesprings to the destination for the picnic and all the other activities we have planned.
Last year the weather in the run up to the day was disappointing so we used the Gateway for the afternoon’s activities. The feedback that we received indicated that this was something that people liked and so we will be using the Gateway again this year.
