People heading to events across Greater Manchester this Bank Holiday weekend are being urged to get on board and ride the Bee Network with Pride.
To mark Pride weekend in the city, the first ever Bee Network Pride Bus supported by Diamond and Aura Graphics has been unveiled. The bus has been specially wrapped to mark the big weekend and can now be seen carrying passengers on the Bee Network.
A Pride tram has been out on the network since Pride month in June and Starling Bank Bikes have also been specially wrapped for Pride weekend.

Saturday is set to be the busiest day with England v Sri Lanka at Emirates Old Trafford, the annual Manchester Pride Parade, Manchester City v Ipswich Town, New Order at Wythenshawe Park and Peter Kay at AO Arena all taking place.
People are reminded that the tram is the best way to travel in and out of the city and are strongly advised against driving into the city centre due to road closures.
