Thousands of people lined the streets of Belfast today for the Pride event.
The Taoiseach Leo Varadkar took part in the parade for the first time.
For the first time ever, the Pride flag has been raised over Belfast City Hall! Well done to Mayor of Belfast, John Finucane for helping to raise it and to Mary Ellen Campbell for proposing it to Council. #RightsNow #bproud2019 https://t.co/XCxx9LYonV

Large crowd of @sinnfeinireland activists at Belfast Pride. Great to see a cross section of society standing up and demanding equality and rights for LGBTQI+ citizens! #BelfastPride2019 pic.twitter.com/Lqc2xzKCGm

Biggest march in Northern Ireland is not orange or green, it’s rainbow coloured. This is NI at its best. Best of Britishness and Irishness. pic.twitter.com/H0mj63nFlK
