Trans Pride at Black Lion

Trans Pride at Black Lion is taking place on 18 July 2026, hosted at the Black Lion on 14 Black Lion Street, Brighton, BN1 1ND. This event is a dedicated celebration of trans joy, visibility, and community, designed to provide an inclusive and affirming environment for everyone who attends.

The programme for the day is built around music and dancing. The organisers have arranged for a series of DJs to provide an eclectic soundtrack that will run from the afternoon right through until late in the evening. It’s a straightforward setup: a space for people to gather, enjoy the music, and spend time together in a supportive setting. Because the event is presented by the Black Lion, it makes use of their space in the centre of the city, which is well-positioned for a day-to-night event of this nature.

If you are planning to go, it is important to note that this is an 18+ event, so you should be prepared to show identification upon arrival. The organisers have confirmed that entry is free, which is a great way to keep the celebration accessible. However, they have also included a specific note that this free entry does not guarantee access to the venue. Like many popular spots in Brighton, the venue will be operating subject to capacity, so it is worth keeping that in mind when you are planning your arrival time.

The music starts at 14:00, and the event continues until late. It’s a chance to be part of a community-focused day that prioritises an affirming atmosphere. Whether you are looking to catch the DJs early in the afternoon or head down later in the evening for the dancing, the schedule is set to run throughout the day. It’s a simple, direct offer: a space for the community to come together, listen to music, and enjoy the day in a venue that is actively hosting the celebration.
