What We Do

Since 1989, Galway Community Pride has been a staple for LGBTQ+ people across the city, county and country.

Our Mission

Galway Community Pride / Bród Pobail na Gaillimhe is organized by a community-elected committee of volunteers to represent and advocate for the needs of the diverse LGBTI+ community in Galway city and county.

Galway Community Pride / Bród Pobail na Gaillimhe offers an opportunity for LGBTI+ people and their allies to celebrate the richness in our diversity through social gatherings, events, and opportunities to connect, engage and deepen a greater sense of community amongst our peers.

The LGBTI+ Community faces multiple layers and experiences of oppression and
discrimination on a daily basis within Irish society, and on a global scale. The strength and solidarity offered by the Galway Community Pride Festival / Bród Pobail na Gaillimhe offers a unique opportunity for LGBTI+ people to feel safe, supported, and connected in Galway.


Our Vision

The Galway Community Pride Committee aims to reflect the diversity within the LGBTQ+ community by encouraging positive participation from the community in the Pride committee and through regular events.

  • To ensure the committee reflects the LGBT+ community, works in an effective manner and is both transparent and accountable.

  • To organise an accessible and safe Galway Community Pride.

  • To source funding for the future development of Galway Community Pride through grant applications and fundraising events.

  • To highlight issues relevant to the LGBT+ community through the Galway Community Pride committee.
