It's the second official year of the new event which celebrates diversity, love and inclusivity on the Yorkshire Coast.
There will be a Pride Parade on Saturday.
The Scarborough Pride Parade will take a central route through the town centre, starting outside the Brunswick Centre at 11am. From there, it heads through the town centre along Newborough and Westborough, along Foreshore Road towards Scarborough Spa, where the festivities will continue for the rest of the day.
Tia Kofi, winner of Drag Race UK vs The World, is then headlining on one of two stages at the Spa, with entertainment from 12 noon until 6pm.
George Wakely is one of the organisers:
A team of 13-14 help put the event together throughout the rest of the year.
George says he feels Scarborough is becoming more inclusive:
This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.
A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
East Riding Council is forging ahead with plans to develop a comprehensive Artificial Intelligence (AI) strategy, forming a new cross-party working group to guide its implementation
A former town centre pub in Scarborough could be turned into ‘high-quality social housing’, although the council has raised concerns about the application.
