Organisers encouraging everyone to take something from event
The Isle of Man Post Office says it's 'proud' to support the Island's first Pride event.
In support of today's festival the post box in the Sea Terminal has been redecorated in the colours of the Pride flag.
It's also printed 500 postcards which will be distributed at the event.
A number of local businesses have lent support to the movement.
Mari Hughes-Edwards is organising the Long Walk to Pride march – she says everyone can play their part:
