What A Difference A Day Made

This event has ended

Collins Barracks, Saturday 24th May

Whether you voted Yes, shared a post, had a conversation that mattered, or simply felt the change the 2015 Equal Marriage Referendum brought — this celebration is for you.

If you got married because of that vote, bring your partner, your friends, your family — everyone who was part of your journey.

If you’re younger, new to Ireland, or weren’t here at the time, come see what it meant, and be part of what comes next.

This is a celebration of love, progress, and community — and everyone is welcome.

Celebrate the difference the YES vote made​.
