Three men in drag, known as the Big Wigs, get ready to take part in the Pride in London Parade.
Three years after the famous 1969 riot at the Stonewall bar in New York, the first UK Gay Pride Rally was held in London. It was a relatively small affair. By the mid-2000s, the name Pride London had been adopted, Regent Street and Oxford Street were closed to traffic for the parade and thousands were taking part. It’s changed its name again now – to “Pride in London” – and is hugely well attended by the lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and trans-gender community.
