Organisers say: “Brighton & Hove Pride 2024 is set to be an unforgettable celebration of love, diversity, and unity, and there’s no better place to soak up the vibrant atmosphere than at Dukes Lane.”

Kicking off the weekend in style, the fabulous Lovinia Belle will be performing throughout the afternoon from 12.30pm in the Dukes Lane Courtyard. Known for their charismatic performances, fabulous costumes, and incredible energy, this will be Lovinia’s third appearance on the Lane, and will set the tone for a weekend full of festivities.

Sean Headley, owner of the Brighton Box Art Gallery on Dukes Lane and member of the Actually Gay Men’s Chorus, shared his enthusiasm for the upcoming celebrations: “I am thrilled that Dukes Lane is hosting such an inclusive and exciting Pride event. It’s wonderful to see the community come together to celebrate diversity and creativity, and we look forward to welcoming residents and visitors to join us!”
In addition to the live performances, Dukes Lane gallery They Made This will be unveiling an Instagram-worthy new mural, located opposite their store, perfect to take those Pride photos with. Created by a talented local artist, following a recent competition, the mural embodies the vibrancy of Brighton, and will be revealed just in time for the celebratory weekend, adding a further splash of colour and creativity to Dukes Lane.
Organisers add: “Dukes Lane, with its charming boutiques, vibrant atmosphere, colourful rainbow bunting and new mural, provides the perfect backdrop for the upcoming Pride festivities – and all involved are excited to see the community come together for a weekend filled with joy, music, and celebration.”
This event has been organised in collaboration with Brilliant Brighton – Brighton Improvement District (BID) – which has recently welcomed Dukes Lane as associate members.
