London has won the right to host World Pride in 2012, it was revealed last night. The decision was made at the InterPride conference in Vancouver last weekend.
World Pride will be held in the British capital during the summer of 2012, just ahead of the London Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Led by Pride London, with support from Visit London and the Mayor of London, London beat tough competition to be awarded the World Pride parade in 2012.
