Barnsley Pride 2024, The Day Through My Lens

Saturday 13th July marked my very first Pride festival. I wasn’t too sure what to expect but one thing I knew would be present was ‘togetherness’.
The day started for me at around 10am. Stalls were almost fully put together and a few people made their way to somewhere comfortable where they could see the day’s events unfold.

12pm - IT BEGAN

Barnsley Pride, 2024!

What a day!! What a great day!

You could see how much love was present from both Smashby and the fans. A joy to watch.
