Narrative:
While awaiting takeoff on aircraft X; we smelled a strong sulfur smell. The flight attendants called to report that they were smelling the same and that passengers were also smelling the smell. We decided to return to the gate; as the smell was constant and increasing. When it was safe to do so; I accomplished the cabin odor QRH; at the captain's request. We were able to return to the gate and deplane the passengers safely. Once that was accomplished; we completed the required paperwork as instructed by the QRH. We also coordinated with maintenance; dispatch; operations; and the duty pilot.
