A Mansfield pub is preparing to host its first Pride festival later this month – where “everyone is welcome” to enjoy a night of drag performances and a disco.

Ye Olde Ramme Inne, on Church Street, Mansfield, will host the event on Saturday, June 24, from 6pm-2am, in support of LGBTQ+ customers and allies.

The pub is run by Roy and Sal Mellody, who said they are “so excited and proud” to be launching the festival.

Having run the pub for a series of years, the couple host regular entertainment for the community with karaoke evenings, quizzes, discos and the odd drag show “here and there”.

The event will include karaoke and drag performances, hosted by Ida Slapta – drag alter ego of Nicky Cann – and landlady Sal.

“The biggest thing is that everyone is welcome. It will be a safe space to all involved not only at Pride but throughout the year.”

Nicky said the pub has a great atmosphere and is popular with residents.
