Bournemouth Gay Pride Event
Below are a selection of images taken at the Bournemouth Pride event. A beautiful hot and sunny day enjoyed by a selection of party goers, who had an enjoyable day out.



Gay community.
Lesbian and gay life in Bournemouth is centred around "The Triangle", an area just 5 minutes walk from the town centre. Here you'll find the majority of the gay bars and clubs. Bournemouth is also home to the Saunabar, the largest gay mens leisure complex on the South coast.
The heart of the local gay community is the White Tigerstore, here you can pick up a free copy of the annual Bournemouth Gay Guide booklet, clothes, magazines and much more.
Many of the gay and gay friendly hotels are within walking distance of The Triangle but there are many more across Bournemouth too.
More info.
Bournemouth has the fifth largest lesbian and gay population in the UK and, based on leisure and lifestyle, has been ranked by ‘Gay Times’ as the tenth best place to live in the UK for gay people.
