Sligo Pride Festival 2022

4 weeks to go until Sligo Pride Festival 2022!

Here’s a little taste of what we have confirmed so far with more to be announced over the coming weeks.

Our committee have been very busy over the last few months from the Rainbow Ball in April to planning this Festival in August.

This year will see events around the county including Tubbercurry and Strandhill, the first Pride March through Sligo (Saturday August 6th) since 2019 with a number of in person events both indoors and outside. This doesn’t mean we have forgotten the importance of online events.

We will be confirming and announcing the rest of our events including online drop ins and safe spaces via our social media over the coming weeks so keep any eye out so you don’t miss out.

Sligo Pride Festival

Sligo Pride Festival launched in 2019 when members of Sligo's LGBTIQA+ community came together to present, "Sligo Pride Comeback". This formed the 'unofficial' theme for Pride that year, as it was surely a Comeback tour-de-force for organisers preparing and networking with three festivals, namely The Outing Festival, Dublin LGBTQ Pride and of course Sligo Summer Festival with just four weeks to get the job done. In 2020, we liaised with EPOA/InterPride to join in GlobalPride2020, partnered with Dublin LGBTQ Pride again and helped support Pride Inside ~ the Digital Pride for rural Irish Prides.
