Bernardine Quinn, manager of the centre in Dundalk, said in a statement that, "due to lack of funding, despite trying hard to raise the required budget we were unsuccessful and as a result we are not in the position to host the colourful vibrant event that we have been enjoying hosting for the LGBTI+ community their families and friends in the town square."
Bernardine continued, "Pride will still take place; however, we will be back in our newly renovated building our courtyard will be our venue for Dundalk Family Pride this year.
"The new venue for Pride 2024 is 8 Roden Place if you would like to come enjoy a sing song some coffee therapies, food, and some goodies please and join us.
"We hope this is just a temporary set back and we will go back to the town square in the future but for now we are looking forward to see you all in our court-yard on the 6th of July 2024, come early."
Bernardine added that "Dundalk Pride programme is packed with interesting and fun events and will be released next week watch this space."
