Wexford Pride's 2nd Annual Symposium returns this year at High Meadows' Community Hub from 10 am - 4pm on Sunday 28th September. The symposium is the creation of a collective of Wexford Pride community members to platform shared knowledge, interests, persecptives and causes while fundraising to support the almost 100 community-led spaces, groups and peer support spaces taking place throughout the year.

Members of the LGBTQIA+ community are invited to prepare a short presentation on a topic they're passionate about, last year's presentations' spanned from human rights, reconnecting with nature, the history of the Irish LGBTQIA+ movement, sprirtuality, sexual fluiditiy, languages of protest and more.
