Annual Events in York 

Pride in the Park 

This is an annual LGBT picnic held in Rowntree Park, just accross the river from the university. It usually takes place in August, so to make sure you're kept informed about this year's events, we recomend that you join our mailing list (email us at lgbt@yusu.org) or our facebook group.  

The York Lesbian Arts Festival

The York Lesbian Arts Festival is held in York every October to promote lesbian art and artists (including literature and writers) to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual and queer women. It's great fun and an event not to be missed. Look out for more details in October or check out www.ylaf.org.uk
