People gather in their thousands for annual Pride march in Dublin

The perfect day for it. Happy Pride, everyone.

Ireland's LGBT community gets together for the annual Pride Parade in Dublin's city centre. Beginning with a rally on St. Stephen's Green at midday, the parade will then begin at 2pm as it makes its way down to Smithfield. A 'no bag policy' is in place in both St. Stephen's Green and Smithfield Square, with only bags measuring A4 size permitted.
