Overview

One of the first events in the Mardi Gras festival is a family-friendly, pup-friendly, eco glitter-friendly day in the park that's inclusive, relaxed and absolutely free to attend. 

There's always a fancy dress competition for doggos, 200 market stalls from the LGBTQI+ community, a main stage with leading queer performers in Australian music, plus the chance to shine brightly with 80,000-or-so of your nearest and dearest chosen family.

It's a landmark event on the Mardi Gras calendar, and everyone gets into the party spirit with spotlight-ready outfits that'll take you into the night when the official after party kicks on. 

This year's lineup features queer artists Bec Sandridge and Ngaiire — so it's safe to say the organisers have excellent taste. Save the date and start planning what to wear for the event that launches a 17-day celebration of diversity, equality, justice and good times.
