Pride Magazine is a magazine targeting black British, mixed race, African and African-Caribbean women in the United Kingdom.[1] This lifestyle magazine has been in publication since 1991.[2][3]

The magazine has a circulation of more than 30,000 copies per month and is looked upon by many advertisers as the most effectual method to reach Black British in the UK. Pride magazine is also the only black media company of any size that till date remains in black British ownership alongside the UK record label Dice Recordings, The magazine in 2012 celebrated its 21st year as the market leader. The Guardian newspaper stated back in 2007 that "Pride magazine has dominated its market for over 15 years."[4]

The magazine switched its format in 2011 as it turned 20 to the popular Glamour-sized format and is still seen as an inspiring and aspiring magazine for the Black British community.
