Music rang through Hamilton this morning as Bermuda Pride brought thousands of supporters to the city’s streets.

Revellers danced, blew whistles and waved rainbow flags as the parade marched from Victoria Park, down Front Street and back.

Even after the parade, celebrations continued with drinks, treats and face painting at the park, with live entertainment to take to the stage this afternoon.

Tiffany Paynter, executive director of OutBermuda, said she was almost overwhelmed by the outpouring of support the event received.

“The turnout is even bigger than last year,” she said. “The atmosphere is fantastic. Everybody is prepped and ready to have fun.

“It has been an amazing morning so far, and I can’t wait to get the performers on stage. It’s just going to be more and more fun. We wouldn’t mind a little more cloud cover, but I feel so grateful. My heart is full.”
