Charity that has run Pride hands over the reins
The Chronicle
|November 29, 2025
NEWCASTLE Pride will be under the stewardship of a new organisation after the charity that ran it for 17 years formally closed.
This year's Northern Pride Parade; next year the event will be run by Curious Futures
Northern Pride has ceased trading with immediate effect, donating its closing balance of £8,500, along with all physical and digital assets to Curious Arts. Curious Arts will now run Newcastle Pride under its Curious Futures arm in 2026.
Northern Pride says it has stepped back from running Newcastle Pride “at the right moment’, with the volunteer model and single board infrastructure “not sustainable for a festival of this scale’
Northern Pride has closed all outstanding commitments, and made clear it has not gone into liquidation - unlike Manchester Pride, which entered voluntary liquidation in October, after a number of performers claimed they were not paid.
