Following a parade along the High Street, Fife Pride will continue in the Town Square into the evening, with a selection of music acts and entertainment taking to the stage, fringed by a market place of information, craft and food stalls.
Throughout the day, there will also be a Youth Zone at the Adam Smith Theatre, where young people can participate in a selection of activities, celebrating their identity in a safe and open environment.
Organisers are looking for young people who may be interested in performing to step forward.
Linsey Neilson, community education worker at Fife Council, said: “As the second Fife Pride will be taking place during Scotland’s Year of Young People, we’re keen to offer a platform for new and rising talent. We’re looking for singer/songwriters or performers to get in touch to see how we can work together.
“We’re also hoping to organise a family-friendly drag show, and we’re hoping some fabulous drag kings and drag queens rise to the challenge.”
Those wishing to get involved should email: [email protected]. A information drop-in day is also being held at New Volunteer House, 16 East Fergus Place, Kirkcaldy on Saturday, June 2 from 10am-noon.
