THOUSANDS of gay, lesbian, bisexual and trans festival-goers and their friends filled the heart of the city with colour and love yesterday.

Southampton Pride 2021 was hosted at Southampton Guildhall today the south's fastest-growing festival of its kind.

It featured a number of live music acts, performances and outdoor stalls.

The event was cancelled last year due to coronavirus, but this year organisers are back with a bang.
