Cornwall Pride
From April 29th to August 26th, there are pride events taking place all over Cornwall. Falmouth Pride took place on the 29th of April which attracted so many people, both from the LGBTQ+ community and allies. With entertainers such as Adam All and Apple Derrieres, an icon British drag duo who are huge advocates for the LGBTQIA+ community, and Layla Zee Susan a “drag queen fabulosa!” The event was certainly one to remember. The next event will take place on May 27th in St. Austell and the final event on July 15th in Redruth, before Cornwall Pride on August 26th in Truro.
