The boys, bears, and belles of Belfast were buzzing with PRIDE this weekend.

The Belfast Pride Festival, the largest celebration in Northern Ireland and one of the most popular queer events on the Island of Ireland, welcomed more than 80,000 revelers and rebels, supporting this year’s theme of “No Going Back.”

“As we celebrate how far we’ve come, we stand firm in our commitment to keep moving forward—towards love, equality, and justice for everyone,” said Neil Millar-McDonagh and Lynn Millar, the co-chairs of Belfast Pride.

GayCities joined the Pride Parade and Party in the Square celebrations on Saturday, and had a front row view of the best moments—and lewks—from Belfast Pride 2025:
