LIVERPOOL is the home of the Open Table Network, and about a fifth of our communities are on Merseyside, so we make the most of Liverpool’s Pride festival to raise awareness that there are communities which genuinely welcome & affirm LGBTQIA+ people.

When the original festival was cancelled with with just seven weeks to go, Sahir House, the Liverpool City Region’s largest and oldest LGBTQ+ and HIV charity stepped in to make sure the march, celebration and show of solidarity could go ahead.

Sahir House, organisers of Liverpool’s Pride 2025, said:

After listening to local voices, the message is clear: Pride still matters – and our city still needs it.

Sahir has launched a fundraiser to raise £60,000 to help deliver Pride 2025.
