Setting off from the bottom of Heene Road and walking 1.2 miles down the length of the promenade, the parade finished up Denton Gardens, just in time for a 1.15pm start.
Organisations from across Worthing took part, flying banners, waving flags, dancing to music, and celebrating the town’s long association with the LGBTQIA+ community.
It comes after last night’s Pride Festival, headlined by Jo O’Meara, from S Club 7, and the festivities are set to continue this evening, with a follow-up performance from headliner Natasha Hamilton and more.
