Limerick Gay Pride Week 2008



The Gay Pride Week 2008 was a great week in which Gays, Lesbians and Hetero friends and family, united in celebration.

The week started on the Sunday with a Garden Party and Art Auction. That's where the photo series starts as well.

I'm just going to add the rest of the week to the same slide show. When you click on one of the photos it will bring you to the whole series in Flickr. When you click on "all sizes" you can then see them in a bigger size.

You can also see on what day they were taken as every photo will have the day added in the title.

November 8th 2008:

I have updated this slide show with the Thursday photos. It was a variety night in Baker's place with song, dance and stand-up comedy.

I didn't go to everything that was on during the week but still to come are photos from the ball on the Friday night and the mardi gras party on Saturday. I won't get it finished this week so I will continue it through next week.

November 14th 2008:

added the photos from the Friday night Rainbow ball. The ball was in aid of the rainbow support services.

December 7th 2008: I finished this post with the photos of Saturday night's Mardi Gras party. And yes, Lorna, you are in some of those photos too. :)

I want to say a big thank you to everybody who helped organise this week. It was absolutely brilliant. I'm already looking forward to next year's pride week.

You don't have to be gay to enjoy a pride week and you don't have to be gay to support the gay community in Limerick.

Live is all about diversity. It makes live a lot more interesting. And everyone should have equal rights in society. Show your support.
