Birmingham Pride Festival will go ahead in September, organisers have announced.
The two day event is normally held in May and is one of the biggest events in the city's calendar.
The 2020 festival couldn't be held due to Coronavirus, and instead there were a series of virtual gatherings.
But a day after Boris Johnson announced his roadmap out of lockdown, which aims to "remove all legal limits on social contact" by 21 June, the organisers of the festival have said it will be held on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th September 2021.
The festival organisers said,
“We firmly believe that delaying until later in September gives us the most realistic opportunity to finally deliver a safe and enjoyable Pride for us all.” Lawrence Barton
