PEARSE Park in Tralee was bathed in sunshine and colour on Saturday afternoon for a Kingdom Pride In Kerry event.

It was one of many activities organised by Kingdom Pride In Kerry over the course of the weekend, with events taking place around Tralee, Cahersiveen and Waterville.

There was live music, stalls, arts and crafts as well as information on drugs and alcohol, sexual health awareness and rapid HIV testing available at the Park.

Later that evening there was a drag night in Maddens Coffeehouse, as well as local pubs hosting other events. Sunday saw more activities which were all sold out.

Daniel Quirke of Kingdom Pride in Kerry said businesses in Tralee and around Kerry were delighted to get involved and the weekend was a huge success. Scroll down for photos…
