The row broke out the web address for Derry's Gay Pride festival

A row has broken out between the organisers of Londonderry's gay pride festival and the city's only gay bar.

The festival committee said that www.foylepride.com - run by Pepe's Bar - could cause confusion with the official site at www.foylepride.co.uk

The committee said it had concerns about homophobic attacks and underage drinking at the venue.

But the owner of Pepe's Bar, Terry Doherty, rejected their concerns and said he has now changed the website.
