OUTBermuda Expanding Bermuda Pride Team
OUTBermuda announced a new structure for the Bermuda Pride 2026 planning team, including “paid event planning and refined volunteer leadership opportunities for people passionate about building a Bermuda where everyone belongs.”
A spokesperson said, “Bermuda Pride is led by OUTBermuda, a charity dedicated to year-round advocacy, education, and community care initiatives for LGBTQ+ people and allies. For Pride 2026, OUTBermuda is expanding its event team to ensure that Pride continues to grow as both a celebration and a catalyst for social change.”
“Pride is more than an event, it’s a movement,” said Joshua Samuels, Executive Director of OUTBermuda. “Every year, it brings hundreds of people together to celebrate visibility, love, and belonging. We’re building a team that reflects Bermuda’s diversity and shares a commitment to equity and inclusion – people who want to make a real, tangible difference.”
A spokesperson added, “The restructured Pride team will include three core Event Planning Lead positions, each overseeing two Pride experiences; The Rally, Concert and Parade, the Night Party and Drag Brunch, and the Panel Discussion and Open Mic night. New this year, some events, such as the panel discussion, will now take place during International Pride Month in June. The remaining Pride events will take place between July 2 and July 5, with the Rally, Parade and Concert taking place on Saturday, July 4.
“In addition, several volunteer leadership roles are available, including Logistics Lead, Community Engagement & Volunteer Lead, Fundraiser, and Harbour Nights Lead. Each will be compensated with stipends in recognition of the time and energy required to make Bermuda Pride a success.
“All positions are open to LGBTQ+ people and allies, with the goal of building a collaborative, inclusive, and representative team that embodies OUTBermuda’s values of equity, respect, and community care.
“Those interested in being part of the 2026 Bermuda Pride team are encouraged to email a resume and cover letter to jamie@iep.bm
