Overview
Sydney WorldPride is making LGBTQIA+ history in 2023 as the first-ever WorldPride held in the southern hemisphere. It can't last forever, sadly, running from Friday, February 17–Sunday, March 5 — and, ending as it'll spending that whole time, it'll wrap up with one helluva party.
That gig is closing night's Rainbow Republic, which features German pop star Kim Petras alongside MUNA, G Flip and more. Fresh from nabbing a Grammy nomination for 'Unholy' with Sam Smith, the 'If Jesus Was a Rockstar', 'Heart to Break', 'Future Starts Now', 'Coconut' and 'Malibu' singer will take to the stage as part of a a seven-hour show filled with live music, DJs and dancing — a queer megamix, if you like.
On hosting duties: Keiynan Lonsdale (Love, Simon, The Flash, Eden), who'll also perform. Peach PRC, Alter Boy, BVT and Vetta Borne are also on the bill.
Indie popsters MUNA will be making their Australian debut when they do the honours at Rainbow Republic, G Flip's pivotal slot comes after they played the AFL Grand Final, following one iconic event with another.
