Pride and BMW Group Ireland 2023.

Today BMW Ireland is taking its first step in becoming active supporters for the LGBTQ+ community by partnering with MOTHER for its annual Pride Block Party, the biggest ticketed event at the Dublin LGBTQ Pride Festival.

This event annually raises vital funds for GCN (Gay Community News), Ireland’s national LGBTQ+ publication – a valued free community resource and registered charity.

This ‘mother’ of all Pride Parties will be held from the 23rd to the 25th June 2023 at Collins Barracks in Dublin held and will feature a BMW iX1 installation with the theme of #UnitedwithPride, BMW’s global campaign to support LGBTQ+ community. Around the world, the BMW Group has consistently been a proud supporter and partner of the LGBTQ+ community having supported World Pride festivals and people that champion diversity.

Speaking at the launch of the partnership, Helen Westby Managing Director for BMW Group Ireland said: “Diversity is incredibly important for the BMW Group as a business. It is incredibly powerful, but for us to be successful we all need to take steps to challenge the status quo. We can do this by giving everyone the confidence, support, and a platform to share their ideas and perspectives. We are delighted to be working with Mother to become active supporters of the LGBTQ+ community in Ireland.”
