Show some Pride!


This year's Pride festival will run until Sunday July 1st with the Parade taking place this Saturday. Starting at Parnell Square from 2pm, it will end at Baggot Street. Rolling road closures will be in place and Gardai will be directing traffic at major junctions. 

This year, the route will be changing slightly to go further south in the city, along Baggot Street to the final destination event at Merrion Square. The new venue will have capacity for up to 15,000 people and space for vendors to sell food and beverages to the public, with family areas available to use inside the park. 

The route in full is: O’Connell Street South, D'Olier Street, College Green, Nassau Street, Kildare Street, Merrion Row, Baggot Street. 
Merrion Square West and South and Merrion Street Upper will be closed on Saturday from 6am to 10pm to facilitate post-parade entertainment. 
Dublin Bus will have diversions in place, see their website for more details.
