Birmingham Pride finale 2025: Photos show real rainbow crowning sky as icons rock Smithfield for one last time

Alexandra Burke and Vengaboys headline a vibrant Birmingham Pride finale with a real rainbow over Smithfield.

One of our stunning photos from the event captures the perfect rainbow crowning the sky over the crowds.

Sunday, May 25, 2025, closed out Birmingham Pride with a packed crowd and a powerful celebration at the Smithfield site.

Alexandra Burke lit up the stage with powerhouse vocals, while Vengaboys turned up the energy with a nonstop party vibe.

Bananarama delivered pop classics that had the entire crowd singing along.

As the final Pride event at Smithfield before redevelopment, it was an emotional and unforgettable send-off for the iconic venue.

For next year, organisers are considering a return to a more community-focused event in the Gay Village.
