Féile pobal-eagraithe, dátheangach, bunaithe in 2022 i nGaeltacht Chloich Cheann Fhaola leis an phobal LADTA+ a chéiliúradh. Tá sraith spleodrach imeachtaí á n-eagrú againn idir an 18-23 Iúil. Fáilte roimh chách. Bí linn!
Beartas Teanga
Mar dhaoine Gaeltachta muid féin, aithníonn muid gur ceantar dátheangach atá sa Ghaeltacht. Gidh go n-aithníonn muid gur dátheangachas éagothrom is ea é seo, agus go bhfuil ról lárnach ag an Ghaeilge inár bhféiniúlachtaí agus cultúr, aithníonn muid chomh maith go bhfuil go leor ann inár bpobal sa lá atá inniu ann nach bhfuil an teanga ar a dtoil acu. Mar sin, tá féile dátheangach agus ilteangach beartaithe againn, ionas go mothóidh achan duine go bhfuil áit ann dóibh ag Bród na Gaeltachta.

A community-organised bilingual Pride festival, founded in 2022 in the Cloich Cheann Fhaola Gaeltacht to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community. We are organising an exciting variety of events from18-23 July. All are welcome. Join us!
Language Policy
As Gaeltacht people ourselves, we recognise that the Gaeltacht is a bilingual region. Although we know this is an uneven bilingualism and although we recognise the central role Irish plays in our identities and culture, we also recognise that there are many in our community today who do not speak the language fluently. Therefore, we have decided to plan a bilingual, indeed multilingual, festival so that everyone can find their place at Bród na Gaeltachta.
