The Dublin LGBTQ+ Pride Festival (Irish: Bród Átha Cliath) is an annual series of events which celebrates lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ+) life in Dublin, Ireland. It is the largest LGBTQ+pride festival on the island of Ireland.[1] The festival culminates in a pride parade which is held annually on the last Saturday in June.[2] The event has grown from a one-day event in 1974 to a ten-day festival celebrating LGBT culture in Ireland with an expanded arts, social and cultural content.[3]
The organisation, including the board of directors, is run by volunteers with some paid consultant help. The stated aim of Dublin Pride is to produce a professional LGBTQ+ pride festival and an annual Pride Day including the parade through Dublin city centre, a politically based rally and free entertainment all working for the improvement of LGBTQ+ communities.
1970s
Following the New York Stonewall Riots of June 1969 and the annual commemorative Pride Parades in the US from 1970 onwards, the first public Gay rights demonstration took place in Dublin on 27 June 1974. [4]
In March 1983, prior to the first pride parade, a march was held from the city centre of Dublin to Fairview Park in the suburb of Fairview, Dublin, protesting the levels of violence against gay men and women in Ireland. In particular, the march was a reaction to the controversial judgement in the Flynn case, when suspended sentences on charges of manslaughter were given to members of a gang found guilty of the 1982 killing of Declan Flynn, a 31-year-old gay man, in Fairview Park, and the subsequent celebrations by some members of the local community following their release.[5][6][7]
The first pride parade was held on Saturday 25 June 1983. The parade was organised by the National LGBT Federation and followed a route through the city centre of Dublin, from St Stephen's Green to the GPO on O'Connell Street, where Cathal Ó Ciarragáin (Dublin Lesbian & Gay Men's Collective), Tonie Walsh (National LGBT Federation) and Joni Crone (Liberation for Irish Lesbians) addressed the rally. Joni Crone rededicated the GPO as the "Gay Person's Organisation".[8]
Although week-long Pride events continued to be held throughout the 1980s, there were no parades from 1985 to 1992 onwards.[4][9]
Pride Events, Marches and Parade Grand marshalls
2013 Dublin Pride
1980s
The 1980 Pride Week was run by the National LGBT Federation and Liberation for Irish Lesbians to coincide with the opening of the Irish High Court law reform case led by Senator David Norris. Activists shared pink carnations (a symbol of liberation) in the city centre, along with leaflets saying "Gay rights are simply human rights" and explaining the origins of the Stonewall Pride riots.[10]
There were many types of pride marches all the way through the 1980s, though the marches specifically did not take place from 1985 to 1992.[9] This was due to mass emigration in Ireland and the HIV/AIDs epidemic affecting numbers attending. [10]

There was little objection to the inclusion of the float from the St. Patrick's Day organisers (Dublin Tourism), and most members of the public. An Irish-American contingent disapproved.[12][13]

The festival was launched by then Irish Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local GovernmentJohn Gormley, TD.[43] Gormley recognised that the proposed partnership legislation was "not the full equality we are seeking, but it is a step towards full equality," and "of real practical value in itself and will make a real difference to the daily lives of many people in committed relationships".[44] Performers at the post-rally gathering included Brian Kennedy, Maria McKee and Tara Blaise.[45]

Controversies
In 2023, the organizers of Dublin Pride were accused of "intentionally doctoring photos" to push "propaganda" when they posted an altered image from a 1983 protest, in which the slogan "Trans rights are human rights" was added to a sign carried by a demonstrator.[53] A spokesman for Dublin Pride defended the change, saying that the "practice of altering iconic images for campaigns is a common practice".[53] The altered image was ultimately removed from the Dublin Pride website.[53]

"It wasn't that people stopped celebrating Pride. There continued to be various kinds of Pride celebrations, like the annual Pride picnic in Marion Square. "There was stuff like that, but the march stopped happening for seven years, from 1985 until 1992. We came together in 1992 to relaunch Dublin Pride.
