This year's line up will include Drag Shows, Céilis, Live Performances, Sports days, Themed Club Nights, Workshops, Parades, Community Street Festivals, Remembrance Ceremonies... the list is endless!

 

Those who are seeking a more arty element will find a dedicated set of Arts & Cultural events including the 1st Pride Film Shorts competition, art exhibitions and a literary & poetry night. There's plenty of fun to be had in this Hip and Happening week of activities!

 

The main event is, of course, Dublin Pride Parade itself, which takes place the last weekend of June.

 

Last year, over 5,000 people, of all shapes and sizes, turned out in the parade and the outdoor show that followed in the amphitheatre of the civic offices. This year even greater numbers are expected at the parade, to celebrate and party the night away! So be sure to come along to this fantastic event, and see for yourself the colourful, lively, and legendary Dublin Gay Pride!
