Out Together’s flagship fundraising event returns with celebrity hosts, drag performances and ambitious fundraising goals

Yorkshire-based LGBTQ+ charity Out Together is preparing to kick off the Pride season in style this June with the return of its annual All Out Together Ball in Leeds.

Now in its fifth year, the high-profile charity event will take place at The Queens Hotel and promises an evening of “glitz, glamour, fine dining and captivating entertainment” in support of LGBTQ+ communities across the region.

Drag Performers and Celebrity Hosts Headline the Evening

This year’s ball will feature performances from a host of LGBTQ+ entertainers, including former RuPaul’s Drag Race UK contestant Veronica Green.

Returning favourites The Viaduct Showgirls and singer Debbie Taylor are also set to entertain guests, alongside a series of surprise performances planned throughout the evening.

Co-hosting the event will be broadcaster Christine Talbot and local personality Matt Jameson, who rose to prominence after appearing in Married at First Sight UK as part of the programme’s first same-sex couple in 2021.

Christine Talbot shared: “I’m so glad to be back hosting the All Out Together Ball with my friend Matt again this year!

“It’s such a special, fun night with so much out there glamour and the most uplifting entertainment – and best of all it’s for a great charity whose work I greatly admire – I hope to see you on the night”

Matt Jameson commented: “I’m so excited to be co-hosting the event with Christine again this year, and all of us at Out Together are incredibly grateful to everyone who is helping us bring together such an amazing event, including our generous sponsors, Weightmans and Flamingo’s Coffee House, along with corporate supporters, Lloyds Bank.

“It’s set to be a memorable evening as guests join us for an evening of celebration and connection, to help raise funds to support the vital work Out Together is doing in supporting isolated LGBTQ+ communities.”

Charity Aims to Surpass £100,000 Raised Over Five Years

The All Out Together Ball has become Out Together’s flagship fundraising event and plays a major role in supporting the charity’s work tackling isolation within LGBTQ+ communities.

Founded in 2020, the organisation has supported hundreds of people through social events, digital inclusion training and support services, with a particular focus on older LGBTQ+ people and those living in rural areas.

Last year’s event generated £20,000 in profit, all of which was reinvested into the charity’s programmes. Organisers now hope the 2026 event will help push total funds raised over the past five years beyond £100,000.

The charity has also recently expanded its national profile through partnerships with organisations including Patient.info.

Tickets and Prize Draw Announced

The ball will take place on Saturday, 6 June 2026, with celebrity supporters and guests from across Yorkshire expected to attend.

Individual tickets and table bookings are now available through Out Together, while supporters can also enter a social media prize draw for a chance to win tickets to the event.

Organisers are encouraging guests to “dress up and join them for a truly memorable evening” as the charity launches another Pride season celebration in Leeds.
