Blackpool South MP Scott Benton was out in the June sunshine, proud to celebrate along with the thousands of visitors as the 2023 Pride Blackpool Parade set off from the Sandcastle and South Pier this morning (Saturday 10th Junes).

The colourful floats, musicians and walkers headed North along the Blackpool Promenade, past the Central Pier towards the North Pier and the Comedy Carpet.. The bright and wonderful display then cheerfully dispersed into the Olympia Arena.
