Southern Vectis is proud to be supporting UK Pride on the Isle of Wight and to celebrate they’re offering a special three day ‘TICKET TO PRIDE’ for just £15!
The TICKET TO PRIDE weekend Rover is available to buy exclusively on their Clickit2Ride mobile app from Friday 20th July and will be valid for 72 hours from the point of purchase. The mobile app is free to download on all Apple and Android phones.
Available to buy between 20th and 22nd July, your TICKET TO PRIDE offers three days of unlimited travel across all Southern Vectis buses – including Breezers and Night Buses. Perfect for party goers making their way home, and for blowing the cobwebs away the following morning with spectacular views and an open top bus ride!
Thousands of people are expected to descend on Island for the UK’s PRIDE festivities, with organisers taking over the white sandy beach and seafront at Ryde for a celebratory beach party complete with live music, DJ’s and colourful entertainment.
You can catch regular buses on routes 2, 3, 4, 8 and 9 into Ryde for the party over the weekend.
The main Pride parade will take place on Saturday 21st July in Ryde, followed by a glitzy after party at FEVER night club in Newport – featuring Gok Wan, a light up dancefloor and glitter canons!
Catch the number 9 from the beach in Ryde direct to the after party in Newport.
Additional buses will be added to the busiest routes to cater to demand over the weekend, ensuring our regular commuters and Pride party goes alike can get from A to B…or PAR-TY!
