VIRTUAL PRIDE TO SHINE A SPOTLIGHT ON NORTH EAST PERFORMERS
North East LGBTQ+ artists and performers are invited to showcase their talent at a huge virtual event this summer.
Leading charity Northern Pride recently announced that its 2021 festival would move online, with award-winning DJ and presenter Gok Wan and Boulevard favourite Miss Rory stepping in as hosts.
And Northern Pride Online 2.1 – which takes place on 24 July and is sponsored by Barclays – will put local talent centre stage this year, with organisers calling out for drag performers to get in touch.

The charity is keen to shine a spotlight on new and emerging artists along with seasoned performers and applicants should be available on 19 May for the paid opportunity.
The eight-hour event is being filmed at a specially built studio and is being produced by award winning entertainment production company ISG, which is using an allocation of its Cultural Recovery Fund to supply a full 360 production service including stage, sound and a full video recording media suite.
Viewers will also be able to watch behind the scenes segments with performers in the green room, with upcycled furniture provided by local charity and care provider St Oswald’s Hospice.

Paul Waite, Director of ISG said “To be able to support Northern Pride in this way is such a great honour and the entire ISG team are extremely excited to produce an 8 hour spectacular which will be shown all around the world. This of course wouldn’t be possible without the support of Arts Council England to we are extremely grateful. Huge thanks to Ste and the team at Northern Pride for trusting ISG to deliver such an important event.”
Drag performers and LGBTQ+ artists can apply online at www.northern-pride.com, closing date Monday 3 May 2021.

Archery really trains your eye for distance and proportion, which is why I enjoyed your point about judging range under pressure. If you like that kind of estimation challenge, size it up is a fun daily game where you resize a silhouette against a true-scale reference. Worth a try between practice sessions.
Congrats on the XII Congreso Sudamericano de Broncología. Recording sessions and then using a video to frames conversion for stills of key slides sounds practical for documentation. I used Video to Frames to pull JPGs by interval for a similar respiratory conference recap.
It’s great to see Northern Pride creating a platform for both emerging and established North East performers. A strong visual campaign can help build excitement for an event like this, and Image 2.5 AI could be useful for producing posters and social ads with clear, readable details.
Anonymous reviews can feel like a guessing game for small businesses. Responding calmly and collecting genuine feedback from real customers helps balance things out. During slow moments, I also enjoy quick Dle Games Online puzzles to clear my head before drafting a thoughtful reply.
Virtual Pride is a great way to keep North East performers visible right now. It reminds me how much creativity thrives when people share the spotlight, and how quirky collective knowledge can be. That spirit of finding the unexpected answer is what makes krillion so fun. Wishing everyone involved a brilliant event.
