Pride Fringe 2025
Festivalgoers won’t need to wait until July for this year’s Newcastle Pride celebrations to begin, with a programme of exciting events announced today for the city’s first ever Pride Fringe, set to take place from June.
A new addition to the North East calendar for 2025, Pride Fringe will offer a wide range of live entertainment, comedy and theatre, along with LGBTQIA+ networking opportunities at a host of local venues across the early summer months ahead of the highly anticipated Newcastle Pride Festival on 19th and 20th July, which is presented in partnership with NE1 and Newcastle City Council.
Dordle is a simple daily puzzle that has become a global phenomenon. If you enjoy word games, you've likely heard of it.
mr flip game is a physics-based 3D arcade game where you control Mr. Flip, a rag doll character, performs somersaults and lands perfectly on target areas.
Queer Bodies and Paddle With Pride really caught my eye! It's like getting front-row seats to a fashion show and a river party in one week. How awesome is that? Flux 2
The Fringe lineup looks unreal — Queer Bodies and Paddle With Pride are absolute highlights. It’s giving the same adrenaline rush as trying to survive another level of Escape Road… but with way better outfits and vibes. Northern Pride 2025 can’t come soon enough!
