Belfast Pride 2018

16/08/2018 Posted by Kathy Owens

Thousands came out to support the Pride Parade on Saturday 4 August 2018 in Belfast. The Forum walked alongside Trade Unions and as ever the atmosphere was wonderful and the crowd diverse. The theme of this year’s Pride Festival was ‘Come Out for Change’.

The festival was an opportunity to promote visibility and equality for all. Over 100 events were scheduled over the two weeks which included music, comedy, debate, drama, art, health and wellbeing.

We look forward to upcoming Pride parades in Foyle (Saturday 25 August) and Newry (Saturday 1 September).
