Overview
It's here, it's Queer. It's Birminghams only Pride History Tour.
Step back in time with us, as we’ll tell you the story of how Birmingham’s Gay Village came to be.
It’s a fabulous tale…but one of exclusion, acceptance and uncertainty.
Starting in 1969, just 2 years after the decriminalisation of homosexuality, we’ll start at the original Nightingale Club Site.
We’ll take you on a 5km walk (2 hours) or run (1.5 hours) through the most influential venues and moments from our cities LGBTQ+ scene.
Drawing on Pride History from around the World, we specifically look at Birmingham’s journey to becoming one of the UK's most thriving scenes.
We’ll also spin around Smithfield’s, home of Birmingham Pride, before finishing our story with a look ahead to a future of increased uncertainty for the survival of the village itself.
You’ll leave not only with a sense of pride in our glorious gay village, but you’ll know what jugs, rhinos and foxes have got to do with it all!
