Lincoln Pride cancelled for a second year
2021 event cancelled again
The Lincoln Pride event has been cancelled for a second year running due to COVID-19.
The event was cancelled in 2020 and organisers said the 2021 event will not go ahead either.
Organisers said in a Facebook post: “We understand this will be a huge disappointment to many. However, safety is our main priority and holding such a large event in uncertain times is not something we believe to be viable.
“Our event is costly and takes many months to plan. Without the guarantee we can go ahead with the full event as normal, and having been unable to conduct our usual fundraising this past year, we do not feel it is possible to put the event on this year.

The new owners of a lap dancing club in Lincoln are completely rebranding the venue and aim to create a more comfortable environment ahead of its opening on June 21.
Sidney Phillips marketed Krystals on Park Street on a 12-year lease with rent of £37,000 per annum. It was listed with a leasehold of almost £80,000 and in July last year it was revealed that an offer was put in to buy the premises.
The club was purchased a few months ago by three colleagues, including Nas Mal from Essex and Hertfordshire-based Sean Henry-Baird, who have rebranded the venue as Desire Gentlemen’s Club. The club will open on June 21 in line with the government’s roadmap.
