Hertford Town Council are delighted to be hosting their first ever Pride event: ‘Hertford Family Pride Day’ on Sunday 12th May at Hertford Castle, 12-4pm.
The event will be FREE for all to attend and aims to bring the local community together, in a safe and welcoming environment; to celebrate inclusion and diversity in Hertford with the simple message: “Be kind, be yourself and all are welcome”.

There will be an amazing line up of live entertainment suitable for all, with special guests soon to be announced, and the Castle will be open for visitors to explore free of charge.
In support of the event, St Andrews Church in Hertford are offering the church chapel as a quiet, inclusive space for prayer or reflection. In the space they will be displaying a symbolic piece of artwork called 'Love is Love'.
