Pride is a protest and a party. A few good habits keep the night joyful. If something feels wrong, trust it.
Agree a meeting point and a time in case phones die or you get split up. A gathering pin makes a perfect rally point.
Keep it with you, and if it tastes off, leave it. Tell staff straight away if you feel unwell.
Glance for the way out when you arrive somewhere new. If a space stops feeling safe, you are allowed to leave at any time.
Use licensed cabs or apps, share your trip, and keep enough charge or cash for the journey home.
Free, confidential and queer-friendly. Save these before the night begins.
In an emergency or immediate danger, call 911. You can report a hate crime even if it happened to someone else.
