The organisers of Torfaen Pride are making final preparations today for today’s event in Pontypool Park – Saturday 7 June 2025.
This is the second time a Pride event has been held in Torfaen. The FREE event starts at 12pm and runs through until 7pm. Around 70 market stalls, including food and drink, will be around the field.
Jamie Wake, one of the organisers, said they’ve introduced a community stage this year, “to provide an opportunity for other people to get on stage”. He said that as soon as the event is over, they’ll start planning for the 2026 event.
The main stage acts include Fifi Fierce, Just Kalz, Delicious Dee, Newport Music and Theatre School, Mark Dibble, The Rock Choir, Travis George, and The Spirit of Cher.
Acts appearing on the community stage include Vibe Kidz, drag bingo with Fifi Fierce, Delicious Dee (on both stages), Elisa Hall, Donna Kennedy, Vitalize Radio karaoke, and Lissa C.
The event’s website says: “Get ready for the showstopper of the summer! The Torfaen Pride Main Stage is where the energy, the music, and the magic collide. From dazzling drag to powerful live vocals, laugh-out-loud comedy to community celebration, this is more than just a stage—it’s a symbol of our strength, creativity, and unapologetic pride.”
