Thank you for supporting Pride Inside 2026!
On Saturday the 30th of May, we returned to the Wexford Arts Centre to celebrate our 6th annual Pride event.
This year’s Pride Inside was a wonderful celebration, and just like last year, we had shelter from the intermittent rain!
Wexford Pride would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the staff at Wexford Arts Centre for hosting our event with us again, for their continued support, and making the day possible.
We want to express our thanks for the continued support of Wexford County Council, Neuropride Ireland, the Order of Malta, Wexford & Enniscorthy Amenity & Arts Grant Schemes.
Thank you to all who made donations in support of our fundraising raffle including Mandy Wood Crafts, Zanna Cookhouse and John Cunningham-Ryan.
Thank you to Larry Dunne for designing this year’s Pride Inside posters and billboard!
Every year we’re excited to engage with and platform local and emerging talent from across Co. Wexford and beyond! A big congratulations to our wonderful line-up of artists and performers who provided important stories of inclusion and music through the day including Aisling De Barra, 12 Gauge Outrage, The Ovarlords, Bloco Garman, Andrei Boyd, Mz Red Dear, the Wexford Pride Singing Group, Lili Luna, Mark and Luke, and the Haus of Goofy - Una live, Queen Marie and Orchid.
Wexford Pride was also delighted to welcome back Poppy DeScrace & Disgraceful Cabaret for this year’s ‘Pride Inside After Party’ in Wexford Arts Centre featuring a fabulous line-up of king’s, things, burlesquers and pole performers including Poppy DeScrace, Asher B Grant, Erick Shan/Kora Elle and Siren Sage!
Our Pride market provided a focal point of our celebration, highlighting the creativity and talent both in-community and of our allies! It was heartwarming to be able to uplift and provide space for small businesses and local vendors to share their work, and witness those of us in-community who are starting out or just returning to their creative vendor journey. We want to thank the small businesses and local vendors that joined us on the day, including CC Bakes, Poppy DeScrace, Aisling De Barra, Changeling Craftworks, Ciaran Foley Art, Nick Made Things, Dee Dodebier, CrustyTruckerCap, Infectious Tats, Intuitive Insights Ireland, Liriel McMahon and the WXP Bookstall.
We would also like to thank the community groups and organisations that joined us on the day – it is vital that we continue to engage with our local services and get curious about how we can bring about more positive change! A big thank you to CATU, Independent Living Movement, Family Resource Centre, Trans Healthcare Action, TUSLA, Dublin Pride and NeuroPride for your contributions to our event and your support.
Pride Inside is made possible through the support of volunteers who contribute their time, energy, and skills in preparation for and during the day’s celebrations. Their generosity of time and spirit is invaluable! Wexford Pride would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all of those whose efforts made the day such a success.
