Longford Pride seeking volunteers for third week-long blockbuster festival

After landing with a bang for a weekend in 2024, and expanding to a blockbuster seven day festival in 2025, Longford is gearing up for its third Pride, and you can get involved!

This year’s festival will build on the success of last year’s week-long event, running from Monday, August 3 to Sunday, August 9.

From seminars to parties, there will be plenty for everyone to see and do - and that means there will be plenty to be done, too!

Longford Pride are currently seeking volunteers to take part in the preparation, running and clear up for the festival, and would love to hear from anyone who can lend a hand, big or small.
