The Pink Picnic 2026: Turning Peel Park Pink Once Again!
Salford Pride are absolutely thrilled to announce that The Pink Picnic will be returning to Peel Park in June 2026!
Get ready to celebrate 15 incredible years of Pride in Salford and this year promises to be our biggest, boldest, and most fabulous celebration yet!
From its humble beginnings back in 2011 as a small community gathering, The Pink Picnic has blossomed into a nationally recognised pride event and is now proudly the second-largest Pride celebration in Greater Manchester! Each year, thousands of people come together to celebrate love, diversity, and unity and 2026 will be no exception.
Here’s just a taste of what’s in store:
Live Entertainment & Big-Name Performers – Get ready for show-stopping performances from local legends and exciting big name headliners.
Community Expo – Explore stalls from incredible local organisations, charities, and LGBTQ+ groups doing amazing work across Salford and beyond.
Fun for All the Family – From youth zones, inflatables, and outdoor games to a dedicated dog-friendly programme (because our pups deserve to party too!).
Vibrant Atmosphere – A place where everyone is welcome, everyone is celebrated, and everyone belongs.
2026 marks a huge milestone of 15 years of The Pink Picnic and 15 years of championing Salford’s LGBTQ+ community. What started as a small act of visibility has grown into a beacon of inclusion, unity, and celebration for thousands.
This is more than just a picnic, it’s a statement of pride, resilience, and joy.
The countdown is officially on! The Pink Picnic returns to Peel Park in June 2026 and trust us, you won’t want to miss it.
Tickets will go fast, so grab yours early to get the best deal and secure your spot at one of the Greater Manchester’s most heart-warming Pride celebrations.
