The team behind Norwich Pride are on the lookout for performers of all kinds to take to the main stage for this year's celebrations.  

The 2023 edition of Norwich Pride marks the 15th anniversary of the annual event and to mark the occasion organisers plan on going bigger and better.  

Head of communications, Ness Cooper, said: “Being authentic is the greatest thing you can bring to any performance but it’s particularly important when supporting LGBTQ+ individuals as it encourages community connection.”

Luke Boydell, head of entertainment, said: “We’ve had a strong start to the performer call-out in the first few days.  

“The best performer will leave our crowd full of joy afterwards.
