Some of Liverpool’s most iconic buildings and venues will be lit up in the colours of the iconic Rainbow Flag as part of Liverpool Pride 2016.

Come Out of the Shadows is a new three-year initiative spanning Liverpool City Region, which will allow the organisers of the all new Liverpool Pride to set out their stall in their bid to become the most visibly L.G.B.T. friendly city in the U.K.

This year, Liverpool Pride is a week-long festival taking place between Saturday 23rd July and Sunday 31st July. The week culminates with a two-day event over the weekend of Saturday and Sunday 30th and 31st July, in the St. George’s Cultural Quarter.
