Pride festival gets underway in Thurles today
Tipperary’s Pride Festival gets underway today in Thurles where there will be a host of events taking place. All events are open to everyone with a focus on those in the LGBTQ+ community.
Due to the growing number of homophobic attacks in Ireland in recent years, including the incident in Meath on a teenager recently, the need to celebrate and educate is incredibly important this June.
The first event today is book signing at The Bookworm shop of ‘The Gay Bible’ by Sinead Huggins Young at 2pm, followed by a dance class at 3pm.
There is then a parade from the town park at 6pm (weather permitting) and the main event is at 7pm in Barretts Coachyard Inn where a variety of events will be happening.
