Overview

The time has come again to celebrate the world’s largest LGBTQI celebration, the 36th Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade.

The march up Oxford and Flinders Streets in Darlinghurst commemorates the 1978 demonstration of a few hundred people standing up against discrimination and has become a celebration that draws tens of thousands onto the street. Get up to Oxford Street early on in the afternoon to take in the visual extravaganza of costumes, floats and fabulous fun.

Then squish into your favourite bar early — believe it or not, this is the first weekend the new 1.30am lockouts and 3am last drinks will be in effect in the area.
