WREXHAM celebrated its first-ever Pride Event - and hundreds of people gathered to show their support.
The event took place this weekend on Saturday, July 27, based at Llwyn Isaf and Queen's Square for the inaugural parade.
Despite the miserable weather, the city centre was filled with colour as stall holders displayed pride flags and guests wore their brightest outfits for the occasion.
The event welcomed local organisations, musicians and live entertainment, and activities and crafts for children and young people.
Queen’s Square also featured a host of stalls, including the likes of Mecca Bingo Wrexham, Lowri’s Cake Box, The Art Bunny, Rebel Dragon Designs, The Nag’s Head and more.

Rachel Allen, part of the event’s organising committee, said: “I know that there’s been folks who’ve been working for a number of years to try and get this off the ground.
“To actually do it and see it and show people how inclusive, diverse and welcoming Wrexham is has been absolutely phenomenal."
