Manchester Pride 2024 road closures: Times and dates routes will be shut for parade and more - full list

Taking place from Friday August 23 to Monday August 26, a packed schedule has been announced by organisers. Early bird tickets sold out in record time, with the Gay Village Party set to once again one of the biggest attractions. 

Another huge part of the weekend is the Manchester Pride Parade, which is the biggest in the city. Thousands will walk the streets of the route, which culminates in the Gay Village. 

As part of the Manchester Pride Festival, there will be some road closures in place over the bank holiday weekend. We’ve gathered information from Manchester City Council that outlines when routes across the city will be closed.
