After months of us all breathlessly speculating over whether Ariana would be headlining this year’s Manchester Pride, it’s official – SHE IS.
Not exactly surprising given that she did say she’d be doing something “big for the LGBT community” in the UK this year, but it’s welcome and exciting news all the same.
Her presence justifies this year’s unprecetedently high ticket price, which has angered many, with a weekend pass clocking in at over £70. That’s pricier than many London festivals, and has made many question the validity and inclusivity of prides that are ticketed events.
The event runs over the weekend of the 23rd – 26th August, with Ariana being joined by acclaimed LGBT artists like Kim Petras, Years & Years and Hercules & Love Affair, plus Basement Jaxx, Bananarama and Faithless. Crikey!
