Pride festival to be held at Tonbridge Castle

Pride events are taking place across South East England this weekend

The third annual Pride event in Tonbridge, Kent, is set to take place on Saturday.

Marchers will meet at 11:30 BST on River Lawn, before the parade heads from Avebury Avenue to Tonbridge Castle.

There will be a free festival at the castle, with family friendly entertainment during the day and adult entertainment in the evening.

Organisers said the aim is to "spread love acceptance and understanding in Tonbridge and the surrounding areas".

Singers, dancers, magicians, comedians, choirs and children's entertainers will be on the main stage from 13:00 to 19:00.

This will be followed by a "night of music, dancing and drag that you do not want to miss", said organisers.
