Balchder Machynlleth Pride have said “Pride isn’t just for one month” with a new events programme.

In their ‘Gay-GM’ last week they set their ‘Gay Agenda’ for the year ahead which includes a priority on Welsh language facilities.

After the success of the town’s first LGBTQ+ Pride which took place this May, the team haven’t let up the pace, putting on a monthly Queer Brunch (otherwise known as ‘Qrunch’) event at the Taj Mahal Community Hwb, showing that having pride is a year-round affair.

At the Annual General Meeting they asked the community to ‘dream and vision’ with them for the events they’d like to see and what they want 2025 Pride to look like.

A spokesperson for Balchder Machynlleth Pride said: “We want to focus on inclusion and community building all year round.

“To this end, we have started holding monthly brunches, usually on the last Sunday of the month, hosted by Y Hwb.

“We're looking ahead to Pride 2025, thinking about a more comprehensive lineup of workshops, talks and performances, and have booked the whole of the Plas in anticipation, plus evening entertainment.

“We will be making Welsh language provision a priority in 2025.”
