Sonic Yootha will bring the feel-good anthems, turning the open-air space into an inclusive dancefloor for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Expect sets from Sonic Yootha\u2019s resident favourites, including WMNKND, who\u2019s already had the dock bouncing at past Pride pop-ups. To keep the party moving, a bike sound system, built by Invisible Wind Factory and Peloton Liverpool, will cruise around the inner quay from 2pm to 4pm. Sonic Yootha\u2019s drag queen Jackie J will be along for the ride too, ready to pose for selfies and spread plenty of Pride joy wherever she goes.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1302\" height=\"1080\" data-id=\"223226\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WMNKND.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-223226\"  \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1179\" height=\"2096\" data-id=\"223225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/TOOG.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-223225\"  \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2233\" height=\"1989\" data-id=\"223224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Sonic-Yootha.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-223224\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>It wouldn\u2019t be a party without something tasty to go with the tunes. Dockside bars and caf\u00e9s will be serving special menus and summer drinks from midday to 5pm. The One O\u2019Clock Gun will be mixing up frozen sangrias and ice-cold beers while Francie\u2019s Focaccia and Coffee will have sweet Italian treats and refreshing lemon coolers.<\/p>\n<p>More Pride fun will spill into other venues around the dock. Revolution will be throwing a Pride Day Party from 1.30pm with a limited-edition Long Island Iced Queen cocktail and donations going to Stonewall UK. Over at Revoluci\u00f3n de Cuba, you can get into the Latin spirit with live Cuban music and an Absolute Queen cocktail created just for the day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sean Morrison, estate manager at Royal Albert Dock, said:<\/strong> \u201cWe\u2019re so excited to team up with Sonic Yootha and Invisible Wind Factory for an event that\u2019s all about celebrating inclusivity, community and Pride.
