:02:46. > :02:49.Birmingham's annual Pride festival. It's become the biggest event of its

:02:50. > :02:55.kind in this country. We sent our reporter Karen Kenworthy to soak up

:02:56. > :02:57.the atmosphere. Umbrellas and ponchos were the must`have

:02:58. > :03:02.accessories at Birmingham's 18th annual Pride festival. But, with

:03:03. > :03:04.around 20, 000 tickets already sold for the event, partygoers weren't

:03:51. > :03:54.solidarity with LGBT poll who are at risk of imprisonment or even murder.

:03:55. > :04:00.And equality is a theme close to the hearts of the crowd enjoying the

:04:01. > :04:07.parade. It is still unacceptable in some places, so it is a thing to get

:04:08. > :04:11.across. If you're happy, you happy. You can go out just in what you want

:04:12. > :04:14.here, I can! Well, the rain's still coming down but it's not affecting

:04:15. > :04:17.the party spirit here at Birmingham Pride. Celebrations will continue
