The virtual parade will be led by the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Tom Brabazon, and frontline workers from across the city.
It will include community organisations, sponsors and partners, LGBTQ+ people, their friends and allies.
Thousands of people attended last year’s parade but it could not be held this year due to coronavirus restrictions.
