London has launched a bid to host WorldPride in 2032, according to multiple UK outlets. The campaign is led by London’s mayor, Sir Sadiq Khan, who says the opportunity would build on the city’s support for the LGBTQ+ community. WorldPride is an international Pride festival held every other year, drawing participants from across the globe.
The BBC reports that, if London is selected, the event would also coincide with the 60th anniversary of London’s first Pride march. This timing is presented as a potential milestone connection for the city’s bid.
While the articles focus on London’s goal and the significance of the 2032 date, they do not detail specific venue plans or the full timetable of the selection process. The reporting indicates the bid is an attempt to bring a major international LGBTQ+ event to London at a landmark moment in the city’s Pride history.
