The Sights of Cardiff Gay Pride

CARDIFF, September 6, 2008 — Coopers Field, the venue for Cardiff Gay Pride, was, like most of South Wales, awash with water yesterday when the event a cancelled.

But this did not stop the organisers from making sure that something went on in the Welsh capital.

Working with the City Council and the police, organisers got together with the gay venue Pulse who had an evening street party planned.

The result was an expanded street party in Churchill Way that started at lunchtime and was due to go on into the wee small hours.

Many of the acts due to appear at Coopers Field switched to a temporary stage in the city centre street.
