🏳️🌈 Blackpool Pride 2026 🏳️⚧️
We would like to take a moment to say a huge thank you to all of our amazing staff, DJ’s, performers, and customers who helped make our Pride Weekend the most successful one we’ve ever had! 🌈❤️
A special thank you goes to our hardworking staff, who worked tirelessly throughout the entire weekend to make sure everyone had the best Pride experience possible. From the early preparations to the late-night finishes, their dedication, energy, and commitment never went unnoticed. We simply couldn’t have done it without them, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they did to ensure the weekend ran smoothly.
This year, we went all out with our entertainment to ensure we delivered a truly memorable weekend, and every single performer went above and beyond. The atmosphere was absolutely electric from start to finish, and the energy in the bar was something really special.
It was also fantastic to see so many of our fellow LGBTQ+ venues and neighbouring hotels busy throughout the weekend. Pride is about community, and it was wonderful to see businesses supporting one another and sharing in the success of such a special event.
From the moment we opened on Thursday until we closed on Sunday night, the place was packed, and we honestly cannot thank you enough for the incredible support you continue to show our little bar. It’s crazy to think that this was only our third Pride, and to see how far we’ve come in such a short time fills us with so much pride and gratitude.
To everyone who visited, performed, worked, danced, laughed, and celebrated with us — thank you for being part of it. You made this weekend unforgettable.
“Be kind, support one another, and celebrate everyone’s journey — not just your own. When we lift each other up, we all rise together.” 🌈✨
Lots of love,
Conor, Seb & Team McGraths x
