Outcomers Drogheda getting ready to take part in Dublin Pride Parade

Members of the local LGBTQ+ community (friends and family) are welcome to join the group in their walk and help celebrate the first Dublin Pride Parade in three years.

Outcomers Drogheda are also organising a Special Pride Bus from Drogheda to Dublin and back again on the day allowing LGBTQ+ people from the area to travel to and from Dublin Pride Parade/Festivities in a safe and inexpensive way.

The bus will depart across from Dominic’s Take Away, George’s St, Drogheda no later than 10am on Saturday, costing €10 per person return. Return time will be arranged on the day.

Alternatively, friends and families can meet Outcomers Drogheda at their meeting point at 11am at the Garden of Remembrance/Parnell Square. The parade kicks off at 12pm.

Anthony Kinsella, Outcomers Drogheda said, “With the concerning rise in attacks against LGBTQ+ people around the country recently, we thought it would be helpful transport for the local LGBTQ+ community so they can travel to the festivities in a safe way, while also feeling free to be themselves.”
