WORTHING PRIDE takes place place on Saturday July 14 at Beach House Gardens.

Sponsors on board include The Cow Shed Worthing, Equiniti, Unite, Leaders Estate agents Worthing with support from Southern Water and South Downs Leisure.

A spokesman said: “As part of our responsibility of putting on a well organised and safe event for all those attending, it has become necessary to make Worthing Pride a ticketed event for those wishing to gain entry to the main event arena.

“The great news is that the cost of a ticket is just £3.50 which covers the cost of operating the ticketing system itself, but will also help fund the cost of putting on Worthing Pride.

“Any remaining monies will be passed to our two very deserving charities we are supporting, Worthing Mind and All Sorts Youth Project.

“Tickets are available to buy from www.worthingpride.co.uk.

“We are expecting there to be a huge demand so be sure to get your tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

“Entry to the main arena is strictly by ticket only and for those of you coming along you can look forward to fantastic acts.

“They include Miss Disney, Spice our compere, Sally Vate and Miss Jason.”
