Join us at Tribeca on Sackville Street in the Gay Village on Friday 8 April 2022 for an evening dedicated to the life and times of Graham Giles, known to many as Dame Gracy.

Dame Gracy was an important gay activist in Manchester, a Gay Village legend, drag artist, uncle, friend, and much-missed community member who died in March 2021.

This event will tell the story of Gracy’s life, including short films, a timeline of Gracy’s life, speeches and stories from friends and family, photographs, memories and more.

The evening will include food, drink and music.

We are also gathering memories for a book dedicated to Gracy.

If you would like to know more about this event and project, please email greg@manchesterpride.com

Our Dame Gracy Memorial is also a walk-in event. If you are unable to book your ticket online, please do turn up on the day to remember Gracy and celebrate with us.
