Senator Zoe Cameron has resigned from the States of Jersey.
Dr Cameron says she does not 'possess the qualities or stamina required to make an impact in modern day Jersey.'
A by-election will be held to fill the vacant Senatorial seat.
Christian May has said he is "seriously considering" standing for senator, following Zoe Cameron's resignation.
The campaigner, and chairman of charity Liberate, says he sees the vacancy as an opportunity.
He told ITV News he will consult his family and friends before coming to a decision.
He also said he hasn't failed to notice certain similarities between what is happening politically in Jersey and the situation in the UK.
The weekend event coincides with International Pride Month and the 51st anniversary of the Stonewall riots.
The scheme has been backed by the island's Lieutenant-Governor, and is the first of its kind in the Channel Islands.
