Marriage Equality at pride festivals

This from Marriage Equality -

This Pride we're going to have shirts in each colour of the rainbow, each highlighting a different inequality. Last year it was a Sea of Purple, and this year we want to see a Marriage Equality Rainbow marching through:

Dublin - June 30th
Dundalk - July 14th
Cork - August 5th
Northwest - August 11th
Galway - TBC
Waterford - August 18th
and Limerick - September 8th

We hope you'll join our rainbow this Pride season, and help us send a colourful but serious message that Civil Partnership is not enough, and it's not equality.
Will you be marching with us? Drop us a line to let us know you'll be there - don't forget to mention which Pride you'll be at! info@marriagequality.ie
