JOIN US on Saturday 14th May from 2pm for Liverpool Loves You - a community celebration and LGBT+ affirming service at Liverpool Parish Church.
Delivered in partnership by Liverpool Parish Church, LCR Pride Foundation, Homotopia, Michael Causer Foundation, Open Table Network, Mission in the Economy, YPAS Liverpool, Liverpool BID Company and Liverpool City Council, the free Liverpool Loves You event will take place the weekend before International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia (IDAHOTB)*, celebrating the Liverpool City Region as a safe, friendly and welcoming place for LGBT+ people of all faiths and none.
Mayor Joanne Anderson will raise the new Progress Pride flag at 2pm and deliver a short speech to open the event, alongside other faith and civic leaders, local LGBT+ organisations and dignitaries from across the region.
There will then be an afternoon of food, drink, entertainment and fun, followed by an LGBT+ affirming service (6pm) before the event closes at 7pm with a vigil against hate crime.
