Foxes Pride

Established 2015

Leicester City Football Club’s LGBTQ+ fan group

Our History

Formally established in 2015 at the King Power stadium, ​Foxes Pride is a voluntary organisation consisting of ​LGBTQ+ supporters and allies of Leicester City Football ​Club. We are diverse and inclusive of all, with one thing in ​common: our love for LCFC!


Our co-founders Graeme Smith and Gareth Miller had ​previously met in 2014 in response to LCFC not actively ​participating with the Rainbow Laces campaign that ​year. When Graeme and Gareth enquired about Rainbow ​Laces and LGBTQ+ activities, LCFC encouraged us to set ​up our supporters group – and the rest is history.


Since 2015, the group has grown into being one of the ​biggest LGBTQ+ football fan groups and we have been ​nominated for/won multiple awards.


our aims


To enable its members ​to have a shared ​interest in LCFC, and to ​promote the Club within ​LGBTQ+ communities.


To work cooperatively ​with other LCFC ​supporters groups and ​other LGBTQ+ groups.



To work with ​LCFC and others to tack​le homophobia, biphobi​a and transph​obia in football.
