About Isle of Wight Pride 

First held in 2017, the Isle of Wight Pride began from a dream to create a space where everyone on the island could celebrate love and individuality.  The first event was a smash hit, and Isle of Wight Pride has become a summer staple, even hosting UK Pride in 2018!  Get ready to join this friendly festival and be part of their ongoing story of love and community.
