Thousands of Trans* people, their friends, allies and supporters joined the first ever Trans* Pride Parade today, bringing St James’ Street to a stop.
The Parade started at The Marlborough in Princess Street just after noon and made its noisy way up St James’ Street to New Steine Gardens.
People lining St James’ Street applauded the marchers, who brought traffic to a standstill for thirty minutes. Last year the Parade was cancelled at the last minute due to permission being sought too late to stage it.
