Qtopia Sydney will paint the Oxford Street precinct purple with pride, as Pride Fest prepares to showcase more than 300 events to celebrate International Pride Month (June) in a big, bold, beautiful celebration of community, culture, and conversation. <\/p>\n
There will be something for everyone, including the very best of queer theatre, drag, comedy, cabaret, book launches, panel discussions, workshops, fitness classes, dance, film, parties, restaurant activations and more. Plus, for the first time ever, Pride Fest will expand outside the walls of Qtopia Sydney to take over the entire Oxford Street precinct, in and epic display of pride. <\/p>\n
\u201cPride Fest is a powerful reminder of what happens when community comes together with purpose,\u201d Festival Director Carly Fisher says. \u201cThis year’s growth has been driven by the community and we couldn’t be more proud to welcome new partners on board to help us grow this into an annual signature event on Oxford Street.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cPride Fest is really about the artists who share their stories, the communities who show up and the allies who stand up, and we couldn\u2019t be more proud.\u201d<\/p>\n
