The Wild Fruit Dance Tent at Brighton Pride

Ever since I can remember I’ve got goosebumps about the Wild Fruit Dance Tent at Brighton Pride.

So here we go, Pride Brighton & Hove 2014. That time of the year where you can’t buy glitter for love nor money, your to do list is the most random its ever been (beer, gay paper fans, Forde hairdo, fresh peas, Donna Summer mask?) and your just days away from the finest love fuelled moments you’ve had since, erm last Pride.
