East Coast Pride announces headline act Queenz, the five-piece all-live theatre show!

Returning to Skegness after two years of touring the UK’s theatres and a West End run, Queenz will appear in a blaze of sequins with a special Pride show.


Performing alongside international, local artists, and community groups, Queenz will be the spectacular finale of the event's free, family-friendly entertainment line-up, which is being hosted in Pride’s Host Town, Skegness.


Having performed at West End Live in London and toured in their ever-successful national theatre tour, as well as various international performances, including Budapest's Sziget Festival, Queenz will be closing the Main Stage on Pride Street, sponsored by Coastal Caravan Breaks.


With a dazzling combination of jaw-dropping live vocals, empowering messages, and powerhouse performances, Queenz turn every event into not only an epic concert but an enchanting journey of self-expression and love. The show has been so overwhelmingly popular that it has played to packed houses every night.




Having performed on the ITV Show ‘Walk the Line, hosted by the beautiful Maya Jama. During their performance, Take That’s Gary Barlow said, 'Just had to put my pen down, and just enjoy!'. Craig David has commented on the show, saying 'the vocals were amazing.' and Gay Times said that it was 'one of the best shows I have ever seen'. 


A spokesperson for East Coast Pride shared their excitement about the announcement: 

'WOW! We’re so proud and thrilled to announce that Queenz will close our Main Stage. The Queenz all trained and came from theatre schools like the ones we have on our coast and are living proof that no matter who and where you come from, you can reach the stars if you dream big enough! At East Coast Pride, we believe that the arts, culture and sports are so important to the lives of the LGBTQIA+ community, and bringing this ever-so-popular theatre show to our audience for free is something really special. We can’t wait for them to close the main stage in an explosion of colour and love!'

The Main Stage is at the heart of Skegness on Pride Street (on Grand Parade). East Coast Pride plans to bring an unforgettable day for the community of the East Coast region. On Saturday, 7 September 2024, from 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm, East Coast Pride will bring a spectacular lineup of entertainment that will have you celebrating love, inclusivity and family as we bring you a day of live performances on Pride Street brought to you by your 2024 Pride Hosts and Cast.
