Since launching in 2023, the celebration has become a district staple – with The Carleton pub at the helm.
On Saturday, visitors enjoyed a variety of live entertainment including solo artists, dancers, tribute acts, choirs and a magic show.
The event, which included the popular dog show on Sunday, helped raised funds for MacMillan and this year money was also raised for charity, Switchboard, the national LGBTQIA+ support line.
Jodie Hughes, general manager of The Carleton, said: “The day was absolutely amazing.
"There were so many new faces at our event and everyone just had the best time.
"The entertainment was incredible and everyone loved it.
Sunday was just as busy for our annual dog show and even more live entertainment.
"My team have done me proud over the last couple of days. They have helped get things together and kept the drinks and the food flowing all weekend.
"We had such a great time and can’t wait to start planning Ponte Pride 2027.”
