Our 2026 Committee Chair, Ricque Porter is quoted as saying, “We created the week-long Wicklow Pride festival in 2024 and hold other events throughout the year around County Wicklow so the LGBTQ+ community and allies in our area can gather in a safe space and just be. I have witnessed the sense of community and joy at every event I have attended and am excited about the variety of events we have planned for 2026.”
● 2024: First festival featured a parade, a Black Castle celebration, and four other events.
We will hold our next popular monthly Dip & Sip sea swim on the 21st of June at 8pm in Arklow and will be visiting the beaches of Greystones, Bray and Brittas Bay before the end of September.
