Hosted by the Dublin Frontrunners (DFR) Athletics Club, everyone is invited to run, walk or jog the route. It's a chance for people to celebrate 'Our City, Our Park, Our Pride' in the historic Phoenix Park which is over 350 years old. Just after the longest day of the year, this is a short distance fun run in lovely surroundings on a summer evening. It's a great opportunity for everyone to come down to the Phoenix Park and get some exercise. There will be a party afterwards in the Phoenix Park polo club for all participants. 5K is a perfect distance for anyone trying to get into a running routine for summer and the event will be good fun for all the family. We're delighted to support Headstrong National Centre for Youth Mental Health and all profits will go to this very worthwhile charity. The Dublin Pride 5K Run also coincides with the Dublin LGBTQ Pride Festival 2013 which is scheduled to kick off on 21st June. Registration Fee €20.00 http://www.visitdublin.com/event/Dublin_LGBTQ_Pride_FestivalDublin Pride 2013 will be a phenomenal festival celebrating three very important historic milestones. This festival will represent the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Irish Gay movement, the 30th anniversary of the Dublin Pride Parade and the 20th anniversary of the decriminalisation of homosexuality in Ireland. All LGBT brothers and sisters who left Ireland due to either poverty or persecution are invited to return to celebrate the wonderful diverse and inclusive culture of modern Ireland. We call everyone, from the four corners of Ireland to the four corners of the world, to come to Dublin and 'Live, Love and be Proud'! Whether you’re LGBTQ, have friends or family who are, want to learn more about diversity or just want to take part in an amazing festival, Dublin Pride 2013 is a festival that features events that will interest everyone. The festival features a non stop line. The colourful and creative Dublin Pride Parade will take place on Sunday, 30th June and is second only to Dublin’s St Patrick’s Day Parade as the largest Parade in Ireland. The full programme of all events taking place for the 30th anniversary pride festival will be released shortly For more information: www.dublinpride.ie http://www.visitdublin.com/event/IGLFA_European_Football_Championship_2013Dublin will be the host for the 2013 Championships which will see will see 32 teams from all over Europe compete, with 3 Men's and a Women's Division.

Dublin Devils FC are extremely proud and honoured to bring the tournament to Dublin and are already looking forward to hosting all the teams here next June. Dublin Devils FC is Ireland's only gay football club. The Devils primarily are a football team and it is for that purpose that most people initially come along. However, the social side to the Devils is just as active. There are permanent fixtures at such events as the Dublin Pride Parade and Pride Sports Day, and our annual Oscar Wilde Cup Challenge against the Emerald Warriors RFC takes place in August each year, along with overseas trips to play challenge matches. The Tournament will be held at DCU Sports Grounds from June 13-16th 2013.   View promo video here.
