It’s finally June, and we all know what that means: Pride season is here, bringing with it a whole host of sensational parties! There are a load of different options on offer, and because it can be easy to lose track, here are a few of the Dublin events you should definitely keep an eye on.

From community favourites to first-time Pride bangers, between these parties, you are sure to find just the right place to dance the night away this June.

Mother Pride Block Party + After-Parties

On Friday, June 23, and Saturday, June 24, the iconic Mother Pride Block Party will return to Collins Barracks for a huge celebration. Featured across the two days are stars like Self Esteem, Purple Disco Machine, Bianca Del Rio, and Panti Bliss, in what is set to be the team’s biggest and most exciting event yet. Limited tickets remain; grab yours here!

 

Following the opening day of the Block Party, the queer favourites are partnering with Absolut Vodka for an unmissable afters in the Button Factory. For a safe, inclusive and immersive experience, complete with Absolut Made to Mix cocktails and premium serves, cutting-edge creative clubbing technology and non-stop bangers from Mother DJs, you should definitely drop by. 

Tickets for Mother & Absolut X’s Pride After Party are €15 and are available now.

On the same night, Mother will also have a second party in LoSt LaNe, featuring resident DJ Rocky T Delgado and special guest Glamo. What better way to warm up for Saturday’s parade than getting sweaty at one of these incredible events?

Dykon Plus

Dykon’s new event, Dykon Plus, is happening at The Sugar Club on June 23.

Tickets are now on sale from €14.92.

 

 

Fluid Club Pride edition

On Friday, June 23, Fluid will take over Pawn Shop for its first-ever bi/pan Pride party. It’s the first Pride event of its kind to happen in Ireland and DJs Sleepless Beauty, Nat Mac and Katma are ready to supply the beats to help you dance the night away.

This party has a very limited amount of tickets remaining, available to buy online here.

 

NSFW x Rathaus Inferno

NSFW’s all-day Pride party will kick off in the early afternoon on June 24. In collaboration with Rathaus, organisers are bringing Inferno to the Grand Social.

Beginning with the Garden Party at 3pm, there will be a wide array of DJs and performers til late, and headlining the night will be Berlin artist Spray Forever.

HONEYPOT

On June 24, HONEYPOT returns for a six-hour celebration of Pride, music and queer creativity.

The lineup includes a very special headliner: London-based duo and Big Dyke Energy residents FAFF, and to put add the cherry on top of the cake, the party also serves as a fundraiser for the Small Trans Library.

Tickets are on sale via Resident Advisor now.

 

Additionally, if you’re looking for something a little different in the lead-up to the big day, HONEYPOT is collaborating with Slaughterhouse on June 22 for an evening of cult horror and live electronic music in aid of Trans Harm Reduction.

The collectives are taking over The Complex Depot to screen the modern cult favourite Jennifer’s Body, and as well as the screening, attendees can expect music performances from some of the city’s most exciting queer talent.

Tickets are €14 plus fees, with all profits going directly to Trans Harm Reduction, a volunteer-run, grassroots harm reduction organisation helping trans people in Ireland and Scotland.
