This is Pride month and the Pride Edinburgh Community Fair will take place on Saturday 21 December at McEwan Hall. This follows the Pride March and also takes place at the same time as the Festival (see the poster below).

The fair runs from 12.30 to 5pm with stalls for information only – there will be no selling of any goods. It is a space for LGBTQ+ groups, charities, and community organisations to connect with Pride-goers and share information with them.

Much more information about Pride Edinburgh including the route on their website here.
