Belfast City Hall will be lit up in rainbow colours to mark the anniversary.

Today marks 40 years since a landmark judgement, that decriminalised homosexuality in Northern Ireland.

Local activist Jeff Dudgeon took on the law that saw gay men thrown in jail - and won.

The decision also paved the way for ensuring no other EU state could ban homosexual acts.
