Progression Ball and Awards Ceremony

🌈 Pride Action North Progression Ball 2025 🌈
✨ Honouring LGBTQ+ History. Celebrating Community. Standing Together. ✨

Join Pride Action North for our third annual Progression Ball, an unforgettable evening marking the close of LGBTQ+ History Month on Friday 27th February 2025, held at the stunning Grand Hotel Gosforth Park.

This year’s ball is inspired by LGBTQ+ History Month and invites you to travel through our shared past, honouring the progress our community has fought for, celebrating our successes, and remembering those who paved the way. At a time when LGBTQIA+ people, particularly trans and non-binary communities, face increasing challenges, this evening is both a celebration and a statement of solidarity.

✨ What to expect on the night:
• A delicious three-course meal
• Live entertainment and performances
• Inspiring speakers from the LGBTQIA+ community and human rights advocates
• Awards celebrating outstanding contributions and achievements
• Raffles, games and an auction with fantastic prizes
• A welcoming, inclusive space filled with joy, connection and Pride Action North sparkle

The Progression Ball is more than a fundraiser. It is a space to come together, to celebrate community, to recognise those making change locally and globally, and to loudly affirm that allyship matters.

Funds raised on the night directly support Pride Action North’s vital work with LGBTQIA+ people across the North East, including life-changing support for trans and non-binary young people.

Dress to impress, bring your dancing shoes, and join us for a night of celebration, reflection, and hope for the future.

💜 Together, we honour our past, protect our present, and fight for our future. 💜
