Birmingham Pride 2026: new route planned due to resurfacing works at Birmingham's New Street
With much resurfacing taking place on Birmingham’s New Street, Birmingham Pride will follow a new route.
A brand new route has been revealed for Birmingham Pride, which is expected to take place on Saturday 23, May and Sunday 24, May 2026.
On Saturday, Birmingham Pride will start at Victoria square, Birmingham City Centre at 11am, with the parade setting off at 12pm. The end location will be at the LGBTQ+ Village (followed by the Birmingham Pride 2026 street party).
This year’s parade will follow this new route: Colmore Row, Victoria Square, Pinfold Street, Stephenson Street, Stephenson Place, New Street, High Street, Carrs Lane, Moor Street, Smallbrook Queensway, Hurst Street and Hippodrome Square.
This route diverts away from New Street due to the resurfacing works that started in January 2026 on New Street and are still ongoing.
More than 75,000 spectators are expected to line the streets, and the parade is free to attend.
