IN a vibrant show of solidarity and celebration, the Polestar Roundabout at the Port Bridge Roundabout in Letterkenny continues to be illuminated in blue and pink until tonight.

The Letterkenny Public Service Centre also raised the Progress Pride Flag, celebrating diversity, inclusion and our ongoing commitment to equality for all.

A new lighting system that was recently unveiled at the iconic Polestar Art Monument, will have a light display symbolising support for equality and acceptance. The colours blue and pink reflect the hues of the Progress Pride Flag, which represents the LGBTQ+ community.

Now in its third year, Letterkenny Pride is Donegal’s largest LGBTQ+ Pride festival, returning this August for a three-day celebration of inclusion, vibrant celebration and community spirit. Led by Letterkenny Pride Festival Committee, this initiative aims to promote inclusivity, diversity and LGBTQ+ visibility in the community.

The Letterkenny Pride Festival included a family Fun Day at the An Grianán Theatre Plaza on Saturday, featuring acts and arts, a live DJ, face painting, live performances of street theatre. The parade followed at 3.30pm.
