Royal Albert Dock is celebrating Pride with a host of free DJ sets

This summer, Royal Albert Dock Liverpool has partnered with LCR Pride Foundation to celebrate Pride in Liverpool with free DJ sets across the weekend.

Showcasing some of the best LGBTQ+ artists in the North West on the Pride Spotlight stage, a new initiative from LCR Pride Foundation, the dock estate will bring the colour and energy of Pride.

From 27th-28th July, the Royal Albert Dock will have a two-storey festival stage made of shipping containers located opposite Pumphouse.

Liverpool drag legend, Lady Sian, will get the party started on Saturday from 1-2pm, followed by a set of high-energy classics from WMNKND – resident DJ at Sonic Yootha from 2-4pm, and the best house and disco tunes from What She Said from 4-6pm. The dock’s Time to Shine podiums will also become mini stages for the award-winning dance group, House of LaPorta, to showcase their electrifying moves from 2-4pm.

On Sunday, Sarah Sweeney, original resident of legendary Liverpool night Chibuku Shake Shake, will play a post-pride three-hour set of the best uplifting disco and house tunes to end the unforgettable weekend from 1-4pm.

Those celebrating can also capture the day’s memories with popular selfie spots around the dock, including the return of two giant pride deckchairs, as well as your last chance to visit the pastel ‘Lover’ hearts outside Anchor Courtyard, which were part of the Taylor Town trail. 

The Pride celebrations are a curtain raiser to Festival of Summer, set to take place at the dock this summer, with an exciting lineup of family-friendly activities planned across the next couple of months.
