All Premier League matches between 6 and 12 February will be dedicated to ‘With Pride’, aligning with LGBTQ+ History Month. This period provides an opportunity to highlight and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community in football, showcasing the work undertaken to make the game more inclusive.

The initiative has been developed in consultation with clubs, representatives from LGBTQ+ supporters’ groups and a wide range of stakeholders, with a focus on embedding three core themes throughout the League and clubs’ work: education, celebration and action.

Premier League chief executive Richard Masters said: “Premier League With Pride demonstrates our ongoing support for the LGBTQ+ community, and our commitment to ensuring that football is for everyone and inclusivity is embedded across all areas of the game.
