This year has truly been a summer of love for the UK’s LGBTQ+ community. London Pride broke records with over 1.5 million attendees, as did Trans Pride the following week with its largest numbers ever. Last week it was announced that Eurovision is to be hosted in the UK next year, and the Lionesses brought it home while captain Leah Williamson wore a rainbow captain’s armband.
On Saturday, another event on the UK’s queer calendar took place. The second installment of electronic music festival Body Movements swept Hackney Wick, welcoming thousands of community members as well as more than 60 artists and DJs.
