About this shoot

The Gaydio Dance Arena kept the energy high throughout Manchester Village Pride as festival-goers danced from day into night. Kriss Herbert and DJ Paulette delivered sets packed with club favourites, while the ever-popular Silent Disco offered a different way to experience the music. Together they created one of the festival's liveliest spaces, where dance music, community and celebration came together throughout the weekend.
