Expo 2026 Vendor Booking
The Community Expo is the vibrant heart of Liverpool’s Pride. Brought to you by both LCR Pride Foundation and Sahir House, hosted inside the LEX. It’s aim is to bring together charities, community groups, independent traders and brands in one shared space where thousands of attendees come to connect, shop and discover.
Whether you’re a local artist, a community organisation or a commercial partner, the Expo gives you a platform to engage directly with the community and showcase what you do.
Booking for 2026 is simple — choose your package, complete your details and secure your space online. Each booking includes space within the indoor Expo and accreditation for up to 4 staff members to manage your stall.
Spaces are limited and demand is high, so early booking is strongly recommended.
