Accessibility at Dublin Pride
We want Dublin Pride to be as accessible and inclusive an event as possible and we have a number of initiatives in place to help. We understand that everyone’s needs are unique so please contact us if there is something we can do to make Pride more inclusive for you or for someone you care about.
The March & Parade
Option 1 – Viewing Area
If you’d like to watch the parade, we have a viewing area with seating and a designated space for wheelchairs in front of the GPO. Our team will be on hand to assist you on the day, to reserve a space in this area, please fill in the relevant section below.
Option 2 – Accessibility Buses
We have a number of buses and vehicles in the Parade for those who would like to take part in the Parade but may need some support. These will include a Quieter Bus for neurodivergent folk. If you’d like to reserve space on one of our buses, please fill in the relevant section below.
Pride Village – Merrion Square
Entry to the Festival Site
Upon arrival at the festival site in Merrion Square, you can go to the entrance on Merrion Square West, opposite the National Gallery. Normal search procedures for an event of this size will still be in place, however, all security and stewards are aware that items such as weighted blankets or other accessibility aids don’t count towards the recommended baggage limits.
NeuroPride Zone
We are extremely grateful to our friends in NeuroPride for helping us create a dedicated space inside the park for neurodivergent folk. This area is located in the South West corner of the park and will be clearly signposted. Volunteers from both NeuroPride and Dublin Pride will be on hand throughout the day.
Accessible Toilets
In addition to standard wheelchair-accessible portable toilets that will be located in a number of areas across the festival area and clearly signposted, the team from Mobiloo will be on hand. Mobiloo is a mobile-accessible toilet with an adult-sized changing bench, hoist, and a friendly attendant.
ISL (Irish Sign Language)
Our ISL team will join us on the main stage for all performances and speeches.
