The Cork Pride Parade will take place on Sunday 31 July, assembling on Grand Parade from 1pm, before starting to move at 2pm.
The parade will finish at a brand new Cork Pride Afterparty venue, down by the Lee at Kennedy Quay at 3pm.
This year’s ‘Cork Pride Party at the Port’ is headlined by Nadine Coyle from Girls Aloud, who’ll be joined by fellow Derry girl, Brooke Scullion from Eurovision 2022, along with Cork Pride favourites, Sparkle, The Guilty Judges, alongside an array of Cork’s finest Drag talent, Kabin Studio, and Red FM DJ’s, all hosted by drag star Paul Ryder.
