Mullingar Pride is set to return in 2025 for its fourth festival, following three previous successful years that have firmly established it as one of the region’s most anticipated events. Starting on June 14 with a Drag Brunch in Daly’s Bar, the celebration will continue all the way to July 5, when the annual Mullingar Pride Parade is set to take place.
Since its founding in 2021, Mullingar Pride has dedicated itself to creating safe, visible, and empowering spaces for the LGBTQ+ community in the Midlands. Mullingar Pride is well known across the country for its annual Werk! Fest, which has welcomes both national and international performers to its stage, highlighting the heights of queer talent.
This year’s committee has announced two exciting evening events following the Pride Parade, which is set for July 5. Firstly, participants will be invited to a social gathering in the beloved Daly’s Bar, followed by a very special edition of Werk! The Night taking place in Smiddy’s Bar.
This year’s festival is set to be one that everyone can enjoy with a lineup of family-friendly activities celebrating the core of Mullingar’s bright community. Mullingar Youth Pride and the Mullingar Pride Adults Group are bound to make a glamorous and inclusive impact at the 2025 festival. The groups are two essential support spaces that offer connection and safety for LGBTQ+ individuals within the local area.

“In a world that often feels divided, we want Pride 2025 to be a symbol of unity, visibility, and accessibility,” said a spokesperson for the committee. “This year, it’s about making sure everyone feels welcome and part of something positive.”
Former Chairperson Mark Reynolds said, “We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved, even though I’ve stepped down, it’s amazing to see others step in and carry the torch to ensure Pride continues to thrive in Mullingar.”
Full event details and updates can be found on the Mullingar Pride website.
