Happy International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Interphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT). Every May 17th, the global LGBTQ+ community organises worldwide events that raise awareness of LGBTQ+ rights violations and stimulate interest in LGBTQ+ rights work worldwide, with events taking place in over 130 countries. The date was chosen to commemorate the anniversary of the removal of homosexuality from the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organisation (WHO) in 1990. Here in Ireland, we’ve made great strides in social inclusion and legal protection for minorities and marginalised groups, but many still face discrimination, so it’s always important to challenge bigotry when you encounter it. As of 2024, homosexuality is still criminalised in 64 countries; at least 12 of these have a death penalty for homosexuality. There is still much to do, but we’ll get there together. #IDAHOBIT2024 #NooneLeftBehind #DublinPride

We’re celebrating 50 years of Dublin Pride, our Golden Jubilee, and our theme is SHINE. Shine means to give forth light, but it also means to cast light into dark places, or to restore the brilliance of things that have gotten dull. Pride celebrates the light we all hold, but it is brightest when it is shared. We invite you to shine, both in your own pride, and to be a light for those who may be in the dark right now. Join us on Saturday June 29th and help light our march. After the Parade we have 2 amazing festival events with something for everyone. Pride Village | A celebration of LGBTQ+ community and culture from 1.00pm to 6.00pm in Merrion Square Park. This is a free event. Mother Pride Block Party | Returning to the glorious surroundings of the National Museum, the Pride Block Party is the biggest annual Pride Party on our island and runs from 4.00pm to 11.00pm.
