Whether you're part of the LGBTQIA+ community or an ally, Pride is a chance to celebrate who we are, support one another and be part of an inclusive community where everyone feels welcome, valued and able to be themselves.
This year, Ulster students and staff will be taking part in Belfast Pride, Causeway Pride and Foyle Pride and we'd love you to join us.
Expect music, refreshments, plenty of colour and the opportunity to celebrate alongside fellow students and staff.
Belfast Pride
Saturday 25 July 2026
Meeting Point: Belfast Campus, BC Building
Start the day with us at Belfast campus before we head together to the parade route.
- 10.30am: Music, refreshments and Pride celebrations
- 11.45am: Walk to Custom House Square
- 1.00pm: Belfast Pride Parade begins
- 2.00pm – 9.00pm: Pride Party at CQ Social
Accessible Viewing Area
If you'd prefer not to take part in the parade itself, a quiet viewing area will be available from 12pm. This space offers a more relaxed environment where you can enjoy the atmosphere and watch the parade.
Pride Party at CQ Social
The celebrations don't end when the parade finishes.
Whether you're part of the parade, watching from the sidelines or spending the day soaking up the atmosphere in the city, join us afterwards for our Pride Party at CQ Social on Belfast campus.
Bring your friends, celebrate together and keep the Pride spirit going.
