TT PRIDE parade 2025 had the gay abandon of a mini-Carnival but also had a serious underlying message in the demand for equality of treatment for all under the laws of Trinidad and Tobago. Almost 200 people turned up on July 20 for the good-natured walk through Woodbrook, the parade amply facilitated by a notable police escort. People strolled along Tragarete Road alongside two music trucks with a lively deejay, waving their rainbow flags and wearing whatever they felt comfortable in, including a few Carnival-like outfits, with one man on stilts and one person even dressed as a dinosaur.

British High Commissioner Jon Dean told Newsday he was keen to attend so as to support the struggle for human rights.

"It is fantastic to be here at today's pride event. We are here because we are huge supporters of human rights, and in particular the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This holds that all people are born equal in rights and dignity, no matter who they are, who they love or what their behaviour is.
