Our Island Story: How Millport Pride Began.

Every great journey starts with a single conversation.

On Wednesday, 18 June 2026, a passionate group of local people came together at the Cumbrae Forum, with others joining online via Zoom, united by one simple but powerful idea: to create a Pride celebration for the Isle of Cumbrae.

By the end of the evening, that idea had become something much bigger.

It was official – Millport Pride was born.

What started as a small discussion has quickly grown into an exciting community project that will bring people together to celebrate love, diversity, inclusion, and equality. We are incredibly proud to be creating a vibrant event that welcomes everyone – our local community, friends, families, allies, and the many visitors who love our beautiful island.

This is more than just a one-day event. It's the beginning of a new chapter for Cumbrae – one that celebrates who we are and sends a clear message that everyone belongs here.

There is still plenty of work ahead, and we'd love for you to be part of the journey. Whether you'd like to volunteer, sponsor the event, take part in the Pride March, host an activity, or simply come along and celebrate, there will be lots of opportunities to get involved.

Together, we can create something truly special and make history for the Isle of Cumbrae.

Follow our journey as we count down to the very first Millport Pride. The best is yet to come. 🌈
